Description

"Arrabella" is an exceptional example of a Grade B1 listed farmhouse. This small holding includes the listed farmhouse, a large barn and stable, two additional outhouse buildings, formal gardens, grazing area, woodland and hard standing; all of which is exceptionally well maintained. The curtilage of the site extends to circa 9 acres and enjoys a drumlin position commanding superb sea and rural views from almost every room. Over recent years the present owners have renovated and refurbished this property with exceptional attention to detail. The result created is a delightful family home, immaculately maintained and tastefully presented throughout where the quality of fixtures and fittings is evident immediately. Of particular note is the magnificent drawing room with pitch pine wooden flooring, adjoining dining room and spacious hand crafted bespoke fitted kitchen with ample family dining area, also a preparation kitchen/utility room and sun room with panoramic views. Combine this with a tasteful use of reclaimed flooring and double glazed sash windows ensures that this property will appeal to even the most discerning of purchaser. The traditional elements and period attributes complement all the modern day conveniences creating a most comfortable living environment which caters for the busy lifestyles of today's family. With five double bedrooms, two benefitting from en suite facilities, this fine home will have particular appeal. The large garage/barn with overhead loft storage and stable to one end, opening to the grazing field makes this property ideally suited for those with equestrian interests. The wooded area provides great interest for walks or trekking and the two additional outbuildings would be ideal for those running a business from home. The versatility this small holding has to offer is seldom offered for sale, whilst the high calibre of finish is rarely surpassed. We therefore we have no hesitation in recommending your earliest internal inspection.
