Carcanet Farmhouse

The farmhouse is set in 4 acres of private land with direct access at the rear to a forest with paths for walking and riding and, for the more adventurous, two long distance walking routes are within ½ mile.

Although this is a very peaceful area, privacy is provided by external fencing and, at the end of the driveway, the wrought iron gates have a phone connection to the house for visitors along with security lighting. There is parking in the grounds for at least 4 cars along with covered storage in the outbuildings and stable block.

The extensive enclosed gardens at the front have been beautifully landscaped and include mature trees and bushes, lawns and flowerbeds, along with decorative garden features.

There is a large bricked patio area directly in front of the farmhouse with a built-in stone barbeque for “al fresco” dining and a selection of garden furniture is provided including tables, chairs, loungers and parasols. The house and gardens have external lighting throughout which makes it particularly attractive for sitting outside on warm evenings.

At the rear of the house is a large comfortable conservatory, which exits to a decked veranda and a sunken lawn area, ideal for sunbathing and racket or ball games. To the south of this lawn and extending over 3 acres, are a number of paddocks, a large enclosed dog run and sloping grasslands, which guests are welcome to explore.

Guests are particularly asked to note that at times horses may be in the paddocks and care should be taken. A footpath along the property boundary gives access to the surrounding forest and tracks.
