A rare opportunity to make this stunning 15th Century thatched country house your home, offering a wonderful period layout and a wealth of history within its walls and original use as the Rushgreen Farmhouse and Dairy Wing set within a 0.6acre plot.
The home has been kept true to its original design, retaining an incredible array of period features, from the original stairs, exposed beams, storey posts and fireplace bressummers, diamond mullioned window openings and Queen post and is a protected Grade II listed building to ensure the home is kept in original condition and design.
The generous accommodation is accessed through the main door into the hallway, with dining room and kitchen leading to the left, onto the downstairs shower room, with handy boot room/lean-to utility area in front. To the right off the hallway are the two living rooms, incredible spaces to enjoy the historic charm in front of the fireplaces. Between the two reception rooms, the spiral staircase leads upstairs.
Upstairs the primary bedroom is to the right and enjoys stunning exposed floorboards beams. The following interlinked bedrooms are to the left and all enjoy beams, character and ample space to make your own. To the far end of the bedrooms is a landing area, with doors to bedroom 5 and the family bathroom. In this landing area is a hatched floor leading to the stairs down to the dining room, which could provide excellent scope to enable the bedrooms to have their own entrances from this side of the home with a hallway to lead into each room individually. There is a high level door in the landing providing access into the loft space.
Externally, the wrap around garden is absolutely delightful, and houses the home's namesake, a stunning Holm Oak tree, amongst a variety of established apple and plum trees, with hedged borders, planting area, handcrafted summer house, shed and external power point. There is a generous 2 storey outbuilding, constructed around 2008, currently utilised as a workshop and storage area, which offers brilliant potential as an annex or business space with power and lighting.
The grounds offer a tranquil green space to call your own, with fields around and beautiful space to enjoy over the years.
