DESCRIPTION

Spout House Farm comprises an elegant, Georgian, locally listed farmhouse which is believed to have been built in the late Eighteenth Century and which has a balanced three-bay facade typical of the period. The current owners have lived in the property since 2005 and are the first owners of the house after a comprehensive refurbishment was carried out with all of the works having been undertaken to the highest of standards with a meticulous level of attention to detail. The original character of the farmhouse has not been lost and yet the residence now benefits from all of the appointments necessary for modern family needs, it has double glazed windows throughout and many fine floors.

In addition to the extensive accommodation provided by the principal residence there is an adjoining annex which provides substantial two bedroom, two bathroom accommodation which would be ideal for dependent relatives or, alternatively, could provide the basis for a superb suite of home offices.

The entire property has been well appointed throughout with fixtures and fittings of quality.

The residence stands beautifully within its own grounds with large sweeping lawns surrounding the house and creating a suitable backdrop for a house of this calibre.
