Description
THE PROPERTY
Tucked away near the heart of the most picturesque and historical village of Charminster, Hayden Farm is a truly wonderful Georgian family home.
First glimpses of this wonderful property are most impressive with its incredibly pretty façade constructed of brick and flint under a pitched tiled roof. Justifiably Grade II listed of architectural and historical importance, Hayden Farm has recently undergone a fastidious programme of works and is now a perfect juxtaposition of old and new. Whereas a lot of the period features remain, it also has many of the modern conveniences to suit most families' needs.
On first entering the property there is a real sense of charm, space and light, with a long hall with large flagstone flooring. There are many rooms worth a special mention including the sitting room, perfectly proportioned with a central fireplace and gas burning stove, and tall sash windows boasting views over the grounds and very pretty village church.
On the ground floor is also a fabulous family kitchen incorporating a number of wall and base units, and an Aga (cream,) with plenty of room for a kitchen/dining table. There is also a good-sized bedroom and shower room on the ground floor, ideal for elderly relatives and/or guests, and a perfectly proportioned dining room.
The principal bedrooms are situated on the first floor with four more beautiful bedrooms, including a fantastic master bedroom with an adjoining bathroom. There is also a separate family bathroom on this floor. The second floor is perfect for teenage children with a large sitting/cinema room and a double bedroom. The property is immaculately presented throughout, and it is difficult not to smile when entering all the wonderful rooms.
GARDENS, GROUNDS, OUTBUILDINGS
The garden and grounds are a particular feature of the property and there is a gravelled area which wraps around the house, with a terrace ideal for al fresco dining. There is a lovely wild garden attracting a huge amount of wildlife, and following on from this is a beautiful walled garden and a barbeque area. Directly to the front of the house is a large field, ideal for ponies and currently grazed by sheep, and a beautiful mixed fruit orchard. Directly adjacent to the property are a number of fantastic outbuildings, one currently used as a games room, and next to this an original stable block. To the far end of the property are a number of further outbuildings which offer huge potential to further develop subject to planning. Farm buildings are accessed via a lane from the main driveway and include, workshop, animal housing, granary, open fronted barn, general store, open fronted shed and hay barn.
All in all, this is a truly wonderful property offering huge potential in an idyllic yet very convenient location.
