For sale freehold • Heath Farm is an impressive and handsome Grade II listed, double

fronted farmhouse dating back to 1853 and is located at the end of a shared private lane. Over the years it has been significantly improved so that it now offers contemporary modern living combined with wonderful original period features. These include high ceilings, ornate cornicing and ceiling roses, dado rails, picture rails, sash windows and fireplaces. All of the rooms are exceptionally spacious and the large sash windows create a light and airy living space.

• The front door is set beneath an impressive pillared portico and opens to a fine entrance hall with flagstone flooring and a wide main staircase with a wreath handrail rising to the first floor.

• The drawing room is double aspect with window shutters to the sash windows, oak floors and the focal point of the room is the striking stone mullion surround and hearth to the working fireplace. The dining room is of similar proportions including the same features, but with a Victorian cast iron fireplace set in a wonderful marble surround and hearth. A generous cosy sitting room located off the kitchen completes the reception rooms.
