Situated at the end of a 400m private driveway is this beautifully renovated 17th Century farmhouse, that comes with 5 bedrooms, 4 bathrooms and 1.6ha of beautifully wooded grounds, with no immediate neighbours. The current owners have painstakingly renovated the property to the highest of standards, managing to strike the perfect balance between the traditional and the contemporary.

The spacious interior offers several elegant reception rooms, including two comfortable sitting rooms, each with a wood-burning stove, a superb bespoke kitchen with oak and granite finishes, and two light-filled dining rooms, both of which open onto the garden.
