College FarmhouseCollege Farmhouse is an outstanding example of a

country house that has been sympathetically restored

to accommodate modern family living. Built of Cotswold

stone under a stone slate roof, this handsome house

has been restored to a very high standard. The historic

elements of the house such as the period fireplaces, the

stone mullion windows and working shutters have been

respected throughout the restoration.

The main reception rooms are in the oldest part of the

house which retains solid oak or limestone floors and

elegant proportions. The impressive 517 sq ft sitting room,

historically referred to as the “Great Parlour”, is ideal for

entertaining large numbers and fitted with a large wood

burner and surround sound system. The kitchen/living/

dining area is approached through a glass link and can

only be described as a master class in contemporary

design. This modern family area is light and spacious with

full height glass sliding panels, floating glazed balcony,

under floor heating and exposed timbers in the vaulted

ceiling. There is a large central island and floor to ceiling

oak cupboards plus the entire area is equipped with Wi-Fi,

zoned lighting and surround sound. The adjoining open

plan dining area shares a double sided wood burner and

enjoys views over the south facing garden. To the rear

there is a large utility/boot room.

Upstairs the accommodation is both welcoming and

versatile. On the first floor there are three ensuite

bedrooms including a substantial master suite, a further

three bedrooms and two bathrooms on the second floor

and above the kitchen/living area there is a games room/

bedroom 6.

Outside, the gardens are delightfully sheltered and secure

with two sets of electric gates and a traditional wall

framing the property. The gardens are mostly laid to lawn,

and include fruit trees, an illuminated water feature and a

summer house.
