Step back in time with this elegantly restored Grade II listed residence, thought to

Interior
As you enter the property, you are welcomed by an inviting entrance hall featuring
period tiled flooring, setting the tone for the character found throughout. The dining room, with its charming alcoves, fireplace, and large window, provides a perfect space for formal gatherings.
Adjacent to the dining room, a cosy study/snug leads you to a spacious sitting room. Here, an impressive inglenook fireplace with a log burner and built-in storage cupboards, dating back to the 1600s, create a warm and inviting atmosphere. Two large windows flood the room with natural light, enhancing its historical features and charm.
A well-appointed kitchen with a gas-fuelled Aga, practical pantry, separate utility room and shower room/cloakroom complete the ground floor. The kitchen is designed for both function and charm with high ceilings and granite worktops, making it a delightful space for culinary enthusiasts.
Ascending to the first floor, you will find a generous main bedroom, boasting two
large windows, a decorative iron fireplace and built in storage. The room is adorned
with a historical James I thistle badge, dating back to circa 1610, adding a unique
historical touch.
The second double bedroom offers built-in storage, a decorative iron fireplace and features a historical escutcheon of the famous Berkeley family. A recently renovated bathroom, with free-standing bath and underfloor heating, in addition to a well-sized single bedroom completes this floor.
The second floor provides another two spacious double bedrooms, a stylish shower room/cloakroom with granite floor tiles, and a large versatile landing, with integrated storage, that could serve as a reception room, office, or studio. This floor offers flexibility for various lifestyle needs, ensuring ample space for a growing family.
Descending a stone staircase from the ground floor, the property also includes a ventilated cellar with cobbled and flagstone flooring, perfect for storage or as a wine cellar.

spaces, including a wood store for the internal fireplaces/log burner, this space is
both practical and pleasant.
Steps lead you to the generously sized elevated garden, where a grassy lawn stretches out before you, offering ample space for outdoor activities and relaxation. Enclosed by well-established shrubs, this private garden is a gardener’s delight; featuring flower beds, mature trees, a wild pond, a fenced area ideal for keeping chickens and a shed.
