Description

Ducks Farm is a stone, under pantile, former farmhouse located in the middle of the village with an Easterly front aspect. The original property is thought to date back to the 1700's and is likely to have been home to the farmer who tended to the surrounding land. Ducks Farm gets its name not for an abundance of nearby water fowl but due to it being owned by a previous farmer who lived there called John Duck. Most of the farmyard has now been developed on with houses but the original house still comes with a significant sized rear garden.

The current owners had the house extended to offer a self contained annexe for an elderly relative. However over time the additional kitchen has had its purpose altered to now be used as a study; although this could easily be restored. Having this flexibility may be appealing to a purchaser wishing to house a relative or draw an additional income as a holiday let with its separate entrance, shower room and two bedrooms. Alternatively, as a single residence with a linking door into the dining kitchen this sizeable house has the option of 5 bedroom accommodation with ample number of reception rooms to serve them.

The original house has a wealth of character with an open fire in the sitting room, a log burning stove in the dining room and exposed ceiling joists throughout much of the house's versatile accommodation. The kitchen is large enough for both cooking and dining areas with the linking added benefit of a utility/boot room to the rear of the house. The sitting room also has an adjoining room that overlooks the rear garden. Upstairs in the main house are three good sized double bedrooms served by a house bathroom as well as a landing with space enough to use as a reading area or extra study.
