An enchanting grade II listed thatched farmhouse with outstanding views across Knighton Pools, all set in approx. 2.14 acres of gardens together with separate barn.
Palins FarmSet in an idyllic location within the village of Knighton with exceptional views towards Knighton Pools, Palins Farm is a most enchanting grade II listed timber framed and thatched former farmhouse. The house itself has recently been sympathetically upgraded to include a new kitchen and bathrooms, whilst the thatched roof has been re ridged. The house feels contemporary and in keeping with modern day living yet retains all of its period features including beamed ceilings, original doors, inglenook fireplace and exposed wall beams. Steps lead up to a covered porch where a wide entrance door opens to the entrance hallway. The hallway is a delightful welcome and has a beamed ceiling as well as a split staircase which rises to the first floor. The hallway provides access to the cellar, as well as the sitting room. A bright and dual aspect space, the sitting room enjoys direct access to the rear terrace via double doors and also benefits from a wood burner which offers an excellent focal point. Off the opposite side of the entrance hall is the spacious dining room which again has excellent views over the garden. The dining room includes an original inglenook fireplace, with a recently installed double sided wood burner inset. The dining room continues on to the open plan kitchen living area, which is the hub of this home. The kitchen is to one side and offers a range of contemporary matt blue wall and floor cabinetry as well as a four oven pearl ash enamelled AGA, whilst a full height fridge and dishwasher complete the kitchen appliances. The living area sits centrally and offers plenty of space for a range of seating, all set around the double sided wood burner. The living area leads on to a dining area which enjoys access to the garden, as well as beautiful views across towards to Knighton pools. Off the back of the living area is a door to the rear hallway which provides access to outside, as well as the utility and guest WC. The staircase rises from the entrance hall and splits into two landing areas. The first provides access to a large, dual aspect double bedroom which is of excellent proportions. Off the other side of the staircase, the landing leads to a second double bedroom with useful storage alcove. The family bathroom which serves these two bedrooms is beautifully curated and offers a double shower as well as feature roll top bath. The principal suite is a delightful collection of rooms and comprises a spacious bedroom, a large dressing area and a contemporary en suite shower room. All bedrooms are filled with light via the generous number of windows, the majority of which enjoy stunning views across the adjoining gardens and countryside beyond. Gardens and OutbuildingsPalins Farm is set within a beautifully landscaped garden plot. An open courtyard provides plenty of parking as well as access to the detached double garage. Adjoining the garage is a recently insulated and spacious home office, which could be used as a fourth bedroom (subject to the necessary consents). There is also a very handy three bay steel framed barn, which is currently used as a garden store. This barn has excellent potential for conversion to a gym, leisure facility or additional living accommodation (subject to the necessary consents). To the rear of the house is an expansive crescent shaped blue brick terrace which offers plenty of space for dining, entertaining and relaxing. The terrace has excellent views across the rear garden, which is mainly laid to lawn. The lawns are interspersed with specimen trees and shrubs, whilst there is also a pretty pond to one side. The terrace and gardens are south facing and enjoy brilliant views across Knighton Pools which adjoin Palins Farm. All in all the plot totals approx. 2.14 acres. Services Mains electricit
