Description
The Property
Located at the end of a lane, Higher Poldown Farmhouse sits in a wonderful position, affording excellent countryside views from the house and over its beautifully kept gardens. The property itself is immaculately presented with numerous high quality finishes and fixtures throughout, combining many original period features with tasteful and stylish modern adaptations
The entrance is a beautiful open reception hall with a galleried landing over and to the right is the spacious, light, and modern kitchen, providing a wonderful space for entertaining, complete with its impressive flagstone floors. Adjacent to the kitchen is a stunning garden room with views across the countryside and doors providing access to the garden.
Set to the side of the broad reception hall are the very generous dining room and sitting rooms. These two spaces flow incredibly well, and the floor-to-ceiling glazing creates a lovely bright and airy atmosphere. There is an open fireplace and wood-burner as well as French doors leading into the garden, creating another excellent space for entertaining.
Upstairs, the 29’6 x 20’3 master bedroom suite is the star of the show, with its vaulted ceiling, exposed beams, and bay window making for an extremely grand room. The en suite bathroom is also of a very generous size, as is the dressing room situated adjacent. There are three further attractive bedrooms and a family bathroom on this level for family or guests.
Externally
Outside, the gardens and grounds are particularly special. Private, meticulously presented, and extending to approximately 2 acres, there are many well-established plants, shrubs, and trees that provide numerous spots to barbecue, enjoy the sun, and take in the countryside views. To the front, there is also a useful detached garage along with parking for 4+ cars.
