THE HOUSE

Re-envisioned and thoughtfully reconfigured by the current owners, Stream Farm combines the charm and individuality of a period country home with elegant contemporary interiors, carefully considered finishes and the comforts of modern living.

The ground floor has been sensitively transformed to create a beautifully balanced series of spaces, equally suited to relaxed family life and entertaining.

At the heart of the home is a beautifully appointed Shaker-style kitchen, incorporating a dedicated breakfast area and designed to provide both practicality and a welcoming environment for everyday living. This is complemented by a generous principal reception room and an impressive orangery.

The south-facing orangery is filled with natural light, creating a wonderfully bright and uplifting space throughout the day. Its generous proportions, vaulted ceiling and views across the gardens create an idyllic connection with the grounds, making it an inviting setting in which to relax and entertain.

The principal reception room retains a wonderful sense of period character, centred around a handsome inglenook fireplace with an inset log-burning stove. Beautiful brick-glazed tiling and oak flooring feature throughout the ground floor, introducing warmth, texture and continuity, while oak-framed windows reinforce the timeless country character.

A ground-floor cloakroom and combined utility and boot room complete the accommodation. An attractive oak staircase rises to the first floor, where the same sense of calm continues across four well-proportioned bedrooms.
The principal bedroom provides a peaceful private retreat, complemented by an en suite bathroom, while the remaining bedrooms are served by a beautifully appointed family bathroom.

The second floor provides a versatile study and useful storage space, creating an excellent environment for home working, a creative space, occasional guest accommodation or simply additional easily accessible living space.

GARDENS & OUTDOOR LIVING

Extending to approximately 0.69 of an acre, the gardens have a wonderfully mature and natural character, with sweeping lawns, established planting and mature trees framing the stream and spring-fed pond.
The water features bring a sense of tranquillity and movement to the gardens, while the south-facing orangery opens naturally onto this beautiful setting, creating a strong connection between the house and its surroundings.

An outdoor heated swimming pool and pool house provide an enviable setting for summer relaxation and entertaining, complemented by a separate gym. The combination of established gardens, private leisure facilities and the peaceful setting creates an exceptional environment for outdoor living and enjoyment.

OUTBUILDINGS, PARKING & SECURITY

Stream Farm is approached through a single gated entrance, opening onto a generous driveway with ample parking for numerous vehicles.

A substantial outbuilding provides valuable garaging, storage and workshop space, offering excellent practicality alongside the principal residence.

The combination of the gated approach, extensive driveway parking, established gardens and private leisure facilities creates a wonderfully secluded setting, well suited to both everyday living and entertaining.

ADDITIONAL LAND & EQUINE FACILITIES

In addition to the house and gardens, over five acres of land with equine facilities are available by separate negotiation, accessed via a separate entrance.
