This beautiful house, which was made from a row of three cottages built in the 1850s, is full of character. Current owner Catriona explains why herself and her family fell in love with it; ‘we were struck by the wealth of charming original features, such as the wood-panelling in the hallway, parquet floors, original tennis net posts on the main lawn and the huge bay windows offering unobscured views across stunning countryside. We saw this as a home which could give us everything we were looking for plus the opportunity to develop’. For those seeking rural tranquillity and a place to get away from the hustle and bustle of life, this property is perfect. Hunningham has a strong sense of community, with locals frequenting the village pub to attend one of its many events such as a beer festival, live music, barbeques and bonfire parties. ‘The Red Lion is a fantastic riverside pub and restaurant that we enjoy in both summer and winter and the food is always good’ says Catriona. For cricket fans, it’s worth noting that The Hunningham Cricket Club is renowned in the local area for its excellence. The area is attractive to commuters due to its good distance from many large towns and cities and excellent access to motorway and rail links. ‘We love spilling out of the house and playing for hours in the garden and field – it’s a great place for den and tree-house building. The property is fantastic for parties with plenty of room inside and out for all’. ‘The large lounge with views over the back garden, paddock and fields all the way to the horizon. It has a beautiful bay window with window seat which is perfect for curling up and reading a book. It also has a wood-burning stove, making it cosy during winter’. ‘The breathtaking view of the fields, amazing sunsets and the peace and quiet; the property has no immediate neighbours’. ‘A sunny birthday party and barbecue for family and friends in the garden; the garden was decorated with Chinese lanterns, flowers and bunting. We had party games and pony-rides for the children in the field whilst the adults relaxed in the marquee or played pool in the games room’. ‘All the space and the prettiness of the house – every time I pull into the driveway I fall in love with the it all over again. Unfortunately, we have to move away from the area for work and family reasons’. * * These comments are the personal views of the current owner and are included as an insight into life at the property.
