Property description
The Hop House is understood to be dated from at least the early 18th century. The property has been beautifully restored, combining the original charisma with modern family living, set in an elevated position with south facing views.
The property is an original Hop House, traditionally used to dry hops from the local fields. Richard Norman Shaw, the well known architect was commissioned to design and oversee its conversion to a residential dwelling around 1870. The current owners have since remodelled the majority of the property, removing small disused spaces to create much larger rooms. Modern appliances such as underfloor heating have been installed, fibre broadband and a backup generator. However, the property has kept its original character, from the beautiful sash window on the landing, to the exposed timber oak staircase.
A fantastic additional building, situated close to the main house which offers a private office en suite, gym, laundry, kitchen and two WCs. There is also a double height entertainment room. This leads directly onto the terrace area which is west facing. This area is situated above the quadruple garage.
The cottage is neatly tucked away from the other buildings and offers private accommodation, it comprises two bedrooms, kitchen, living room, bath/shower and comes with a small private garden area.
The property sits in an elevated position with a wonderful gravel driveway. The lawns are beautifully manicured and the tiered levels offer great views. There is a heated swimming pool on the second tier behind the Mini Hop which has a relaxing patio area along with pool house.
