Farmhouse • The Farmhouse was originally built as a barn, part of the Home Farm serving the Fretherne Court Estate. Fretherne Court, which is now demolished, was built in the 1860s and the barn was probably built around the same time. • The Barn is built of Frampton brick under a tiled roof and has a handsome gabled façade with shaped weather boarding. It was converted by the current owners into a private dwelling in 2010. • The accommodation, which extends to approximately 2,700 sq ft and is arranged over two floors, is well laid out and has many attractive features including limestone floors to the ground floor, high ceilings, oak internal doors and architraves and under floor heating throughout. • Of particular note is the kitchen / breakfast room, an excellent family room and the central hub of the house, which is comprehensively fitted with a custom made range of hand painted solid oak units under granite work surfaces and incorporates a gas fired double oven Aga with an electric companion, a dishwasher, combination microwave/ oven, coffee maker and a substantial island unit with sliding fridge doors. • The sitting room is another impressive room with a dramatic floating wood burning stove suspended by a steel flue and tall bi-folding doors which open onto the garden. • On the first floor there is a lovely large landing/sitting area with a high vaulted ceiling, a triangular gable end brick wall with dovecote openings and glass ‘stepping stone’ inserts in the floor. Gardens and grounds • A shared tarmac drive leads from the lane through double electric gates to a car parking area. Running alongside the parking area there is a substantial outbuilding which provides a four bay carport, workshop, home office and a utility room.

• The garden lies to the front of the barn, which faces south west and comprises a large expanse of lawn.
