A handsome Grade II listed mainly Georgian property in a prominent village position.
Description
Occupying a prominent village position, Shepherds House is a substantial Grade II listed attached property believed to date from the late 18th century with an early 19th century façade. This handsome village property offers a wealth of features with generously proportioned, light rooms having high ceilings, sash windows, ceiling coving and pretty period fireplaces to the majority of rooms.
Three stylish reception rooms, two of which enjoy a dual aspect comprise, a sitting room, dining room and a study. The sitting room is a beautiful room with bespoke fitted cupboards, shelves and two sash windows enjoying the village views to the front, whilst the dining room is a formal room with views over to the north, perfect for entertaining.
The kitchen/breakfast room is a delight, with handmade oak lined cupboards and drawers, central island and complimented by beautiful granite worksurfaces. Off the kitchen is a utility room which is the former kitchen, having a sink and space for white goods. Attractive flagstone flooring leads from the kitchen/breakfast room through to an inner hall, off which is a WC with a Victorian glass window.
On the first floor there is a lovely light landing. To the front are two bedrooms, the generous principal bedroom suite has its own dressing room with bespoke fitted wardrobes and a luxurious en suite bathroom with freestanding bath and separate shower. To the rear is a bedroom, family bathroom and a door leading through to the Weavers Barn.
On the second floor are two bedroom suites which almost mirror each other, cleverly planned out, they feature shower rooms with modern sanitary ware.
Attached to the main house is a weavers barn which, subject to the necessary planning permissions, could provide versatile annexe accommodation. Outside, to the front is a south facing courtyard with off street parking, a garage, store room, log store and bin store.
