The Property (3,950ft2)
Situated in an enviable rural setting on the edge of Cavenham, The Old Plough is a beautifully crafted Grade II listed house, built of traditional timber-frame construction under a reed thatched roofline, with later additions, with the kitchen extension added 6 years ago.
The property cleverly blends the original character and wealth of features with contemporary nuances and modern living space, which extends to almost 4,000ft2 enjoying a high degree of natural light throughout and almost open plan feel, together with most rooms enjoying views of the beautifully kept gardens and open countryside beyond.
The arrangement of accommodation is skillfully planned and beautifully finished with the highest quality of materials throughout, with extensive ground-floor space providing an element of future proofing, comprising entrance hall with quarry tiled floors and double aspect, leading into the dining room, with a superb exposed frame and double aspect, quarry tiled floors and large inglenook fireplace with store cupboard.
The sitting room has an inglenook fireplace with double aspect, leading to a versatile open-plan area, with access to a cloakroom and inner library which flows comfortably through to the superb garden room, with panoramic views of the garden, exposed modern oak frame and doors to the garden and opening to the kitchen.
The kitchen/breakfast room forms part of an oak-framed extension that was built in 2018, creating an exceptional space with views over -the gardens and fields beyond, fitted with a bespoke handmade painted shaker-style kitchen with marble worktops, matching island with inset sink unit, integrated double oven, plate warmer and induction hob with extractor over, dishwasher and space for large American style fridge-freezer.
There is an adjoining boot room, with handmade cabinetry and storage, marble worktop, sink unit and plumbing for tumble dryer and washing machine.
The southern wing comprises a double aspect study/bedroom 5, leading to a stunning principal bedroom suite with vaulted bedroom leading out to the garden, a dressing room with extensive wardrobe storage, drawer units and dressing table, and en suite bathroom with twin sink units, WC and large walk-in shower cubicle.
The first floor is accessed from two separate staircases, with the southern wing staircase leading to a bedroom with boiler cupboard and shower room. The original staircase rises to a large landing area, with useful storage cupboards, a lovely double aspect bedroom with heavily exposed frame and exposed chimney breast, family bathroom and guest bedroom with built-in wardrobes and luxurious en suite bathroom.
Outbuildings
Detached from the property is a converted range of outbuildings, notably a self-contained annexe (600ft2) with 2 good-sized double bedrooms with fitted kitchenette and shower room. For those requiring private workspace or office, the owners used this for their business for many years. Adjacent to the annexe is a range of brick-and-flint outbuilding (250ft2) providing useful garden storage and sauna with shower and WC. Within the formal lawned garden is a former stable block, which provides perfect summerhouse and store (900ft2) with kitchen, lawnmower store and workshop.
Outside
The property sits in an enviable position, centrally in its 2.7 acre grounds, with views across adjacent farmland and water meadows at the rear, with its gravelled drive and turning circle to the front leading round to further parking at the rear of the annexe, with the main front featuring beautiful specimen rose beds. The remainder of the garden, which runs across the rear and on both sides, is predominantly lawn with an established boundary border with mature planting for colour throughout the year. In addition to which, there is a terrace across the rear of the property, and additional al fresco dining terrace adjacent to the summerhouse.
