Maybe most visitors would think that is the end of the ground floor tour but this is a house that keeps on giving. An intriguing door at the far end of the living room opens into a bonus space that reveals itself as a two-storey annexe, with living space on the ground floor that is currently being used as a home office, and a staircase that takes you to a first floor ensuite bedroom. From a teenager to a grandparent, either end of the generations of a family would be pleased to live in this section of the house that feels independent, including boasting its own front door. Conversely this bonus section of this versatile home could be a guest wing so impressive that they might never want to leave.

This impressive family home can also boast two luxury bathrooms on this level, so there is never likely to be a queue in the morning, with one room enticing visitors with the promise of being revived in a double walk-in shower. But it's the other bathroom that can demand the most attention as the most popular place with all members of the family due to its fabulous and spacious hot tub bath with multiple jets offering hours of soaking in bubbles, relaxing the stresses of the day away. OUTSIDE:- Step outside into the substantial garden that offers masses of parking for all the guests who will be visiting this vast and sociable house. Once they have driven through the impressive metal gates off the quiet country lane and parked, it's a short walk to the immaculate and vast lawn that wraps around the house, offering ample space for playing games and adding children's play equipment. There's space for adults to enjoy themselves too, with the massive deck to the side creating a sun-drenched and special spot to enjoy alfresco dining, relaxing, and hosting the best social gatherings, all enveloped by far-reaching rural views and a peaceful ambience with birdsong as the predominant soundtrack. Dogs will think they are in pooch heaven with so much space to run around and there's a choice of areas that could host the addition of a vegetable garden, greenhouse and shed for anyone who wants to live the good life and begin growing their own food. A new owner may even want to increase the party potential to a higher level with the addition of a hot tub, and maybe even a swimming pool if planning allows. Around to the far side of the house is the bonus of a double garage, handy for storage as well as a home for the cars but, as there is a vast area for parking, maybe this detached building could become a workshop, home office or even a multi-generational annexe, again if planning consent is given.

History: Originally known as Alveston Manor, Old Church Farm can trace its noble history back to medieval times when it was owned by King Harold of Wessex prior to the Norman Conquest in 1066. It was made a crown estate by William the Conqueror and subsequent Kings of England used it as a hunting lodge. In 1149 it was given to one of the Marchers who had helped defend the English-Welsh border Fulk I Fitzwarin. It was seized back by King John and the resulting feud between Fulk III and the King were the basis of the tales of Robin Hood. Within the grounds lies the ruins of the Church of St Helen, a national monument with its 12th Century walls and 14th Century tower. The house was added to in the 16th Century (with dating over the door of 1634) including main Tudor plasterwork and fireplaces. From 1960 it was owned and run by Rolls Royce PLC as a private hotel to entertain foreign dignitaries. The current owners purchased it from Rolls Royce in 2017.
