DESCRIPTION Dating back to 1914 the property was built by a local auctioneer and estate agent Newland Tompkins who purchased the land from local church commissioners in order to construct this glorious country home. Having been enhanced and restored by the current owners, the property is arranged over three floors and offers a fabulous kitchen/dining room incorporating a range of built-in appliances, an Aga, centre isle, granite worktops, wood flooring, vaulted ceiling and floor to ceiling glazed windows allowing natural light to flood in. In brief the generous accommodation, which has an abundance of character comprises an entrance hall, drawing room, sitting room, study and cloakroom . Stairs lead to the first floor landing where there are four good size bedrooms, dressing room, family shower room, and separate bathroom . The second floor offers a guest bedroom with en-suite shower room and eaves storage. The property offers a wealth of character and quirky features including an apparent time capsule left by the Tomkins heirs in 1962; mill stones both in the house and outside, one with a George V penny inset and also a beer bottle inset in the roof as was tradition at the time, all making the property a fascinating country home steeped in history.
