The Property
Greenfield Farmhouse dates in part to the early 17 th century with later additions and is situated in an
‘edge of village’ setting backing onto farmland with stunning views over its own grounds and the
valley beyond. This quintessential property is listed as Grade II and is constructed of stone under a
largely thatched roof, it has been greatly improved by the present owners with work including;
incorporation of former outbuilding to create the superb fitted kitchen and laundry room, refitting of
all bathrooms, top coating and re-ridging the thatch and upgrading of both electrical and central
heating systems. The property is now an extremely well presented, comfortable and substantial
family home combining a wealth of features consistent with the period of origin, such as exposed
ceiling beams, inglenook fireplace and window seats; together with modern day styling and
convenience.
The attractive gardens and grounds lie principally to the south and west of the house, comprising well
planted lawned areas with secluded sun terraces ideal for alfresco dining and a large graveled parking
and turning area accessed through electric gates. Beyond the formal gardens is a small paddock with
play area and vegetable plot and there is also a substantial stone and brick outbuilding with planning
consent to convert to garden room/work from home office.
