If you're looking for a pretty rural property in a tranquil setting surrounded by beautiful countryside, look no further. This one has all that and a large enclosed garden of over 1/2 an acre wrapping around the house.

Situated in a hamlet of only three houses and at the end of the row, the lane beyond runs into fields and woodlands so wonderful views from three sides of the house while the fourth side is screened from the neighbour by hedges and fencing.

Despite it's rural setting, the property is just a brisk 15 minute walk from the main village where there is a bar restaurant and shop plus a tea room which also hosts other activies.

The house is very eco-friendly with newly installed heat-pump central heating and solar hot water plus a large log-burner in the lounge and pellet burner in the dining room so very cosy in the winter and very economical.

The property is modernised with just a few finishing touches required and there is the possibility to create a ground floor bedroom in the attached garage subject to appropriate permission.

The perfect property for the peace and quiet and enjoying a rural lifestyle with amenities in easy reach.

This traditional stone village farmhouse dates from the mid eighteenth century and has been lovingly renovated, where possible, restoring original features including the "tomette" kitchen floor tiles, the chestnut wood salon floor and the 'oeil-de-boeuf. Where restoration has not been possible the current owner has used the highest quality traditional materials including solid oak staircase, internal doors and shutters and oak double glazed window units.

Traditional heating is provided by an insert in the salon and a wonderful traditional wood-fired range in the kitchen diner, but this has been unobtrusively augmented in every room by the latest thermostatically controlled electric panel radiators.

This property really needs to be visited to view the quality of the work and the meticulous attention to detail, but in brief the property comprises: on the ground floor, an eat-in kitchen, a large salon, an entrance hall, a bathroom and separate WC.

Upstairs are 4 double bedrooms and a family shower room with WC.

Immediately adjoining the house is a large open fronted barn with stairs down to a cellar. To the east of the property there is a huge 200m barn, which like the main property, has been renovated and is currently divided into 4 discrete workshop and storage areas.

The mature gardens attached to the property extend to over 5000m2 lying principally to the south of the property and contain many mature trees and an old bread oven and working well. Just across the very quiet hamlet lane is a further 2000m2 of orchard containing numerous fruit trees.
