5 bedroom house for sale

Overview

Integral dishwasher, tiled floor and AGA cooker

Approaching Tumby House Farm over its long driveway, flanked to either side by immaculate lawn and trees, it quickly becomes obvious that the owners have devoted a great deal of time & care into its nearly 9 acres, which includes some of the most idyllic and well-designed gardens we've seen. Inevitably this also sets expectations of the property itself. Safe to say the accommodation doesn't disappoint, having been thoroughly updated to combine modern aesthetics and decor with traditional character including latch doors, exposed fireplaces, Clearview Stoves (in the dining room and lounge) and traditional sinks. The kitchen, utility, conservatory and cloakroom all benefit from hand-crafted Murdoch Troon fitted units, with the kitchen also featuring an AGA and a large pantry, effectively the size of a second utility. The first floor comprises an updated four-piece bathroom and five double bedrooms. Most of the rooms across both floors enjoy incredible views either of the gardens or neighbouring open fields, so the property feels very private both inside and out. And so to the outside which displays possibly an even greater attention to detail, with gardens designed to take full advantage of the changing seasons and even reflect different geographical regions. There is an abundance of seating and dining areas and outbuildings which include an open tractor barn, a garage and a workshop. Further additions include a bespoke insulated gym, set within a garden of Iris. The gym has full height windows, French doors and an office. A second similar container serves as a fitness room and has two pairs of French doors which open to a stunning White Birch Wood and Arboretum surrounded with Daffodil. The combination of superb presentation and acres of beautiful grounds make for a hugely desirable character property and one with more virtues than we can really summarise. Suffice to say that this lovely property has the appeal and versatility to suit many different types of buyer, so an early viewing is recommended. * Note: This property is not connected to mains drainage.
