At its heart a period farmhouse built in 1852, incorporating parts of an earlier dwelling, now skillfully enlarged with contemporary extensions giving a huge amount of light to the accommodation. The property is in excellent structural order and easy to maintain as a permanent home with air-source heat pumps providing economical hot water and central heating, under-floor throughout much of the ground floor. With its sliding glazed bays opened, the kitchen-dining area becomes an indoor-outdoor room, ideal in hot weather and the sitting and music room combination is an additional year-round entertaining space. The library has bookshelves on all four walls and the original Gascon fireplace and bread oven. A utility room, downstairs shower room, games/hobby room complete the ground floor accommodation. The first floor bedrooms all have comfortable proportions and there is the potential to add an adjoining shower room to bedroom 1. Outside, a workshop and carport for two vehicles are conveniently located on the arrival side. The garden has a great variety of plantings and specimen trees and a sheltered patio for outside dining. The swimming pool is ideally set on a lower level with a particularly large paved area. Rooms: Ground Floor Entrance hall, 2.7x 5.1m, with fine Gascon staircase in oak.
