Description
A fine period farmhouse beautifully situated on the River Avon.
Glebe Farmhouse is a house of considerable charm and character, dating from the 18th century. It is built with brick elevations under a tiled roof and incorporates a magnificent restored Grade II listed timber and thatched barn. The house retains many interesting architectural features and now provides excellent family accommodation with lovely views over the River Avon. Of particular note is the wonderful galleried, double-height drawing room with exposed oak beams and rafters.
The entrance hall, with its sweeping staircase, is a light and airy space with the galleried barn to one side, which now provides a magnificent entertaining space with an open fireplace on a raised hearth. Beyond are a study/family room, three bedrooms and bathrooms to the far end. These rooms could be converted to a separate, ancillary accommodation. On the ground floor of the original farmhouse, there is a sitting room, kitchen/breakfast room and useful pantry. A cloakroom and utility room lead off the entrance hall.
Upstairs, there is a spacious, triple-aspect principal bedroom, with views over the river and meadows to the village church beyond, and an adjoining bathroom. Two further bedrooms and a shower room complete the accommodation.
The thatch on the barn was renewed in 2013 and a condition report can be provided on request.
Glebe Farmhouse is approached from the village lane over a gravelled driveway through paddock land to the front of the house. There is a double carport and storage shed to the side. The house is clad with scented climbing plants including rose and honeysuckle
To the rear of the house, there is a second entrance into a gravelled courtyard, partly enclosed by high walls. Gates open to the inner garden. A wide, gravelled path leads to terraces edged with rose and herbaceous borders and lawns running down to the banks of the River Avon. Off the kitchen/breakfast room is a terrace with a wisteria-clad pergola.
The paddock land stretches to the front of the house, along the banks of the river.
