A delightful period farmhouse which has been painstakingly renovated, extended and improved is the perfect home for all seasons Cox’s Farm, Freeland, is believed to date from the 18th century.

Owners Richard and Diane Dennis bought the property, which has more than five acres of gardens and paddock, about ten years ago.

Mr Dennis, a local builder and developer, said: “I always liked the property but had to wait about 25 years before it came on the market. It is such a lovely home in a wonderful private location.”

After five years hard work the farmhouse was transformed into a large four-bedroomed home which retained many age-old features such as timber doors with latches and exposed wall and ceiling beams.

Mr Dennis added; “By changing the layouts and extending the house we created a larger farmhouse kitchen/breakfast room with a range cooker, four bedrooms and a sun lounge.”

The farmhouse also has an inviting sitting room with an Inglenook fireplace and woodburning stove, a dining room with a flagstone floor and a master bedroom with an en-suite bathroom Mr Dennis, pictured above, said: The farmhouse could be further extended as there is planning permission for an extension to create a larger sitting room with a master bedroom above. The outbuilding could also become a one-bedroomed annex.”

Cox’s Farm has a guide price of £995,000. For more details, call Chancellors on 01993 811990.
