DESCRIPTION

Checkley Farmhouse is constructed of brick under a tiled roof, approached through electrically operated gates, over an impressive, sweeping beech-hedged, gravel drive to ample car parking and turning area. This period property is particularly impressive as it has a wide and versatile range of attributes, both inside and out. The house extends to about 3,200 square feet (gross internal) and the detached garage block/annexe to about 1,400 square feet.

Internally this is a house of outstanding stature, quality, proportion and presence. Each room has its own personality and distinctive features.

The kitchen/breakfast room is fitted with a timeless Martin Moore, of Alderley Edge, kitchen. The study furniture is by Johnson & Johnson of Manchester and the guest bedroom furniture by Smallbone of Devizes.

Outside the setting is excellent with amazing grounds and open views over countryside towards Checkley Wood and beyond. The gardens are magnificent, having been professionally cared for over the past 30 years. From formal hedging to a wildflower area, lawns, beds and borders providing colour and variety through the seasons, this is a magical setting. There is a good relationship between the house and the outside, with a large York stone terrace flowing off the main house. There is an elegant Amdega Summer House with underfloor heating.

High quality curtains, blinds, carpets included.
