Detached house for sale in Bells Yew Green Road, Bells Yew Green TN3

In a marvellously natural setting, enjoying a lovely outlook over its own land and beyond, an attractive, detached, former oast house, set within grounds of approximately 1.24 acres. Possibly with historic associations to the former Ware Brewery, the property was skilfully converted by the present owner in the 1990’s who carried out a comprehensive programme of re-building and restoration. Mindful of the natural beauty surrounding the property, the aim was to create an atmospheric home, which provided flexibly arranged accommodation from which the focus was the views but is also ideal for multigenerational living or as an income generator. External elevations are typical of an agricultural conversion with some decorative weather boarding, painted render and of course, the kiln. Internally the majority of the accommodation in the main house is laid out over the ground floor and includes a fine sitting room with large inglenook fireplace and wood burning stove, whilst the dining room has views to the rear, Elsewhere on this level are two/three bedrooms with one at present used as a study. The kitchen/breakfast room is fitted with beech cabinetry and an electric Aga and is supported by a large laundry room. A principal bedroom suite on the first floor has a vaulted ceiling, fitted wardrobes which continue into the dressing room and an en-suite shower room. The annexes can be accessed either from the house itself or by external doors. Each has a fitted kitchen, sitting room, double bedroom and a shower room.

Outside

The property is approached via a five-bar gate, opening on to a wide parking and tuning area, with the drive continuing behind the property to a further parking area adjoining a large, detached outbuilding which currently provides covered parking, excellent storage space, lockable workshop with additional storage on the first floor. There is also a covered car port, second small barn and a former stable in the paddock. The gardens and grounds have been specifically laid out to capture the natural surroundings with various terraces from which to take in the outlook, lawns, colourful herbaceous borders and a large soft fruit frame. The paddock has mixed hedgerow boundaries and is accessed via a five-bar gate.
