"Set in an idyllic plot of just over two acres incorporating gardens and a paddock, this charming Grade 11 Listed moated farmhouse dates back to the late fifteenth century and offers a wealth of character with spacious and adaptable accommodation of four reception rooms and five bedrooms with two bathrooms. DESCRIPTION: This delightful Grade 11 Listed moated farm house is a former medieval hall house dating back to the late fifteenth century with a wealth of period features including a seventeenth century inglenook fireplace, exposed beams and a former bread oven. The property offers exceptionally spacious and versatile accommodation with four reception rooms in addition to the studio which could be converted to a large family room if required (subject to the necessary consents). The master bedroom has a very large en suite bathroom with a shower and a claw footed bath and there are four further double bedrooms and a family bathroom. The property has been lovingly restored and maintained by the present owner for over forty years and must be viewed to be appreciated. GARDENS: The property is approached through a five bar gate signed Old Manor Farm. There is a long gravel driveway which leads to the property and to the large gravelled parking area. The grounds, which extend to just over two acres, are a superb feature of the property with a variety of mature trees and shrubs, large expanses of lawn and a gravel and paved dining terrace immediately abutting the property, overlooking the pond and moat. To the rear of the garden there is an outbuilding with power and light (suitable for conversion to a home office) and far reaching views of the local countryside with a small area of woodland. A five bar gate alongside mature trees opens to a paddock and stream which is crossed via a wooden bridge of railway sleepers. The paddock is mainly pasture with saplings, hedgerows and several wooden benches overlooking the stream.SITUATION: Broughton is a hamlet to the east of Aylesbury with three schools (New Millside Pre-School, Broughton Infant School, and Broughton Junior School), an Anglican Church, a community run coffee shop and ?The Dog House Inn? public house and restaurant, which is a short walk from The Grand Union canal.
