**CHURCH HILL FARM**

BEAUTIFUL INSIDE AND OUT
Combining characterful charm dating back to the 1800s and having undergone a stylish makeover, Church Hill Farm is a fantastic five-bedroom detached cottage that will leave a lasting impression from the very first glance.
Situated within a private gated cul-de-sac in the village of Crofton, the double-fronted exterior of the original farmhouse offers curb appeal in abundance. Beyond this, every detail of the immaculate interior has been carefully considered and upgraded to a high specification from the attractive sash windows to the solid oak doors throughout.
You’ll be in awe of the quirky ceiling beams and the living space provided. The generous proportions and unique design aesthetic will suit the needs of a growing family seeking modern luxury and period features in equal measure. Come inside to see more.

FOR THE WHOLE FAMILY
As you enter through the arched front door and into the hallway, you’ll greet the stairs straight ahead and find a spacious reception room at either side. 
To your left is the family room. This has become the ultimate place to relax in front of a movie thanks to the built-in bespoke media wall housing a wide screen TV, hi-spec speakers and a cosy electric fire. At the flick of a switch to draw the electric blinds closed, you’ll have your very own luxury cinema room to enjoy. 
This modern entertainment hub is offset by the character and texture of the panelled walls and original wooden beams overhead which feature throughout the property. 

IN KEEPING WITH TRADITION
Back across the hallway, the charming lounge sits to the right of the stairs and offers a separate space for the adults to gather if the kids have control of the remote. 
The cast iron, wood-burning stove takes centre stage, set among a brick fireplace upon a Yorkshire stone hearth and really comes into its own in the winter months. Finished with solid oak flooring which continues seamlessly from the hall and through to the kitchen, this space feels more rustic and traditional in keeping with the farmhouse heritage.

CONTEMPORARY AND CLASSIC
An internal door from the lounge leads into the quite simply stunning, south-facing breakfast kitchen which has been extended and designed to create an impeccable multi-functional space. 
The family can all gather here for a morning coffee or after school to perch upon the central island which features a contrasting oak breakfast bar. Chic charcoal, shaker-style units are topped with off-white quartz worktops and finished with brushed brass hardware to forge a timeless stylish aesthetic. The attention to detail in design here is faultless, from the tall column radiator against the rustic brick wall to the scalloped tiles in the original fireplace encasing the top-spec Ilve cooker. Integrated appliances are top of the range too and tucked away discreetly including a wine cooler and built-in microwave within the island.

DINING IN STYLE
At the opposite side of the brick wall and mirroring this effect through the open arch is the bright and airy dining room. 
This is a perfect sun trap for those summer days when you can bring the outside in, and fling open the bi-fold doors to the garden. The dual aspect-windows and south-facing position ensure that even in the cooler months, this space is flooded with natural daylight. Beyond the kitchen is a magnificent boot room and separate utility which is set within the foundations of the former garage. Both of these practical spaces are finished to the same high standard and feature attractive, built-in cupboards for storage, as well as side access to the courtyard patio and a tiled W/C. 
Before you head upstairs, the final room to complete the ground floor is the cellar which is accessed via an internal door from the kitchen. This bonus space has been damp-proofed and is ready to be used for storage or even as a dedicated wine cellar.

THE VAULTED MASTER
Neutral decor, muted tones and effortless style details continue as you make your way to the first floor up the central panelled staircase. 
The first room on your left will be the gorgeous master, complete with an en-suite shower room and a built-in double wardrobe as well as ample floor space for free-standing furniture in the alcoves. 
At first glance, you’ll be drawn to the unique vaulted ceiling and original cast-iron fireplace providing all the character and interest you’d expect from a property of this era. The luxury en-suite is fully tiled from floor to ceiling with a striking design and comes complete with a walk-in shower finished with brass details including a rainfall shower head, wall-mounted taps above the floating hand basin and a heated towel rail. 

DELIGHTFUL DOUBLES
Bedroom two sits behind the master and is almost equal in size, comfortably housing a king-size bed. 
A satisfying sense of symmetry makes this a delightful space with a pair of bespoke fitted wardrobes featuring a desk area between the two, and two windows with a column radiator sitting central. The third bedroom is situated along the landing at the front of the house and is another generously sized double. Adding to the feeling of space and grandeur is a similar vaulted ceiling to the master, as it sits within the original footprint of the property. By now, you’ll notice that cast iron column radiators come as standard and despite each room having its own character, the traditional design aesthetic is consistent throughout.

FIVE-STAR STANDARD
Tucked away in the corner of the first floor is the incredible family bathroom which has been renovated to a five-star standard. 
Parquet flooring is laid underfoot and straight ahead is the impressive, free-standing bathtub complete with wall-mounted brushed brass taps. The large walk-in shower is tiled from floor to ceiling with a fluted glass enclosure and sunken tray.  This spacious retreat also features a charcoal wooden vanity unit to house the large wash basin, a heated brass towel rail and W/C. 

LUXURY LANDSCAPING
The property sits almost centrally upon the plot which naturally splits the garden equally between the front and back. 
This has encouraged dedicated zones to be formed around the two lawns which are both encased with mature hedges and trees to create a sense of peace and privacy. 
From the resin driveway at the front with an electric charging point, an Indian stone path leads you past the front door and to the side access gate. Through here, you’ll enter into an incredible outdoor kitchen space complete with a wood fired pizza oven beneath a wooden pergola which has played host to countless BBQs and garden parties. An additional seating area lies on the patio directly outside the bi-fold doors to the dining room to allow a seamless flow between the house and garden.
A top-of-the-range children’s climbing frame and play area set upon soft bark underfoot have been created to entertain the younger generation, leading onto the sweeping green lawn to allow for endless days enjoying the outdoor life. 
The final exterior space comes in the form of a wooden studio room, built with functionality in mind to offer a hybrid gym and home office space. Complete with an air-con unit and bi-fold patio doors, this space could serve any purpose you like, but would make a perfect area away from the main family home to separate working life.
