Tucked away on a no through road in a quiet village, Little England Farmhouse is a fine Grade ll Listed family home offering flexible accommodation comprising four bedrooms (one en suite), bathroom, three reception rooms, a bespoke kitchen, an attached barn and outbuildings which include a multi-purpose stone built coach house (currently used for B & B) and a workshop. There is ample parking and the private garden extends to approximately half an acre with a beautiful timber yurt and an attractive shepherd hut. The property retains a wealth of period features such as beamed ceilings and inglenooks but has oil central heating and hand crafted timber framed double glazing. Large mature trees give the garden privacy and the low stone walls and raised vegetable garden create a cottage feel with plenty of areas to sit and enjoy the setting. The attached stone barn offers an excellent entertaining space and has hosted art exhibitions in the past.
