Few village houses wear their history as gracefully as The Causey. Of late 16th century origin and listed Grade II, it sits back from Church Lane, its warm brick and tile hanging softened by wisteria. Around 1920 the Arts and Crafts architect E W Marshall remodelled the house, then known as The Lute House. It now extends to approximately 4,943 sq ft. The front door opens into a vaulted, galleried hall, where a carved blessing dated 1627 still crowns the inglenook. Each principal room has its own fire: a beamed drawing room with a stone fireplace, an inglenook dining room and a panelled office lined with books. The Aspect kitchen, with quartz worktops, opens to a light filled courtyard room beneath a roof lantern. Oak timbers frame four bedrooms, three of them en suite, with a dressing room to the principal suite. Above the garage, a studio with its own stove makes a superb office. The gardens, believed to have been influenced by Gertrude Jekyll, unfold as a series of rooms: a box parterre, rose beds, a lily pond, a brick pillared pergola and an Alitex greenhouse, with a walled courtyard off the kitchen. In all about 0.41 acres.
