Grange Farm comprises a fine, detached 19th Century farmhouse with a later Victorian front facade. The property provides four principle bedrooms, two attic rooms, two reception rooms and a farmhouse kitchen with gardens and grounds extending to 0.53 acre or thereabouts.
The commodious rooms and large window openings provide practical family accommodation and considerable character. The house has been well maintained and re-roofed in recent years. Central heating is oil fired, the windows are double glazed and there is an up to date electrical safety certificate. The property has a blue brick damp proof course, most radiators have thermostatic controls and the house is nicely decorated and presented throughout. A former milking parlour provides a useful outbuilding for storage purposes.
The accommodation provides on the ground floor a reception hall with archway to the inner hall and a fine Georgian staircase. The house is double fronted with a sitting room and family room. The farmhouse kitchen to the rear of the property features an old bread oven and a pantry. The downstairs also is a lobby area, utility room and cloakroom. The first floor provides a landing and two steps down to a back landing. There are four good sized bedrooms, a family bathroom, dressing room and separate shower room. The second floor provides two large attic bedrooms with gable windows and central heating to the larger of the two rooms.
Outside the former milking parlour is a substantial brick constructed building with loft above.
