6 Manor Farm This historic farm has been meticulously maintained to create a private sanctuary of country living, a rare opportunity in such a convenient location. The driveway from Crown Lane leads through electric gates, through manicured gardens to a gravel parking area between the pond and farmhouse. The house and associated buildings lie within 8 acres of mature gardens and grounds, which have been well looked after to present a very comfortable, relaxing setting. Manor Farmhouse originally dates back to the 17th Century with its timberframed core and has been extended and modified over the years to offer excellent family accommodation with character and charm. A Tudor-style timber framed entrance leads to the large central drawing room with doors to the study and sitting room on the west side of the house. With most rooms benefitting from at least a dual aspect, the house feels light and airy with stunning views across the mature gardens on all sides. On the eastern side of the house lies a beautiful dining room with timber panelling, service kitchen and the main kitchen/ dining room with Chalon units and worktops. There is also a cloakroom, utility, pantry and storeroom off the kitchen, beside the back door. On the first floor there is a master suite on the west side of the house with large en-suite bathroom, bedroom and dressing room with built in wardrobes. There are two further bedrooms and a bathroom here, before another door from the landing leads to a sitting room and three further bedrooms, two linen/airing cupboards and a family bathroom.

8 Medieval Barn Southeast of the farmhouse is an attractive range of period buildings including a large 18th Century, Grade II Listed building known as the Medieval Barn. This 7-bay timber framed barn is used partly for storage and partly as a large entertainment and recreational space. On one side of the barn there are some small pigsties currently used for storage or as kennels. There is also a wooden lean-to on the rear of the barn with two stables.

9 The Lodge Beside the secondary entrance driveway, on the southern boundary of the farm, lies The Lodge. This barn conversion was completed in 2004 and comprises a large open-plan kitchen, dining and living room with doors to a front and rear garden. There are two bedrooms and a bathroom. The cottage is subject to a Section 106 agreement, more details of which are available from the vendor s agents.

10 Gardens & Grounds Behind the Medieval Barn lies a courtyard with lawn and a heated swimming pool. This is enclosed by a small range of outbuildings which have been converted to create changing rooms, a WC and an outdoor dining area with brick barbecue. Adjoining the changing rooms is the old Coach House with garage and workshop below a hayloft/store on the first floor. Also in the grounds lies a Grade II Listed Granary. This is located beside the secondary driveway and set on saddle stones an unusual feature on the approach to the house. North of the house lies an orchard and vegetable patch, in addition to a steel portal frame agricultural building measuring 11.8m x 24.4m. The stunning landscaped gardens surround the house on all sides and are irrigated by a private water supply. The gardens start with sweeping lawns, a fountain, rockery and pond to the north and east, to mature trees interspersed with herbaceous borders and a rose garden to the east and south. They are a credit to the house with many seating areas and vistas across the farmland that drops away to the west. Finally, there is also an all-weather tennis court and summerhouse on the western edge of the garden with tremendous views across the land.
