Aston Farm house

Aston Farm House is the quintessential character farmhouse, set within a courtyard and draped in wisteria.

Believed to date back to the sixteenth century, the property now requires renovating sympathetically in order to expose the history that lies concealed within.

Set within two acres of lawns, mature shrubs, trees and an orchard, a new custodian is sought to return this magnificent property to its former glory.

A wealth of charm and period features await. Exposed beams, some authentic leaded windows and open fires all create an imposing yet cosy surround.

A bar gate leads you to the private courtyard, bordered by brick built animal sheds/ outhouses. As you follow the driveway you get the first glimpse of Aston Farm House, nestled behind a stone wall and engulfed in wisteria and climbing roses.

A paved path guides you to the oak front door. You enter into the central hallway with oak doors leading off. To the left is the spacious sitting room with open fire place & exposed beams. A further door accesses the guest cloakroom even having the original bread oven in the wall!

The dining room lies to the right where the original features and character continue. An open fireplace creates the perfect ambience and space in which to enjoy a family meal. A lovely dual aspect room with windows overlooking the private gardens to both the front and rear.

The kitchen leads off – in need of refurbishment, this longs to be the traditional farmhouse kitchen and the real hub of the home. A further doorway takes you to a covered lobby from which you can access the rear courtyard and kitchen garden, and also allows access to the utility/boot room.

The charm continues to the first floor. The landing with its original fireplace gives way to three good size bedrooms, an anti room also leads off which enables access to a further potential bedroom with exposed beams and leaded windows and the family bathroom.

To the side and rear of the main house, you find a collection of brick outhouses, incorporating, coal house, animal pens, wood stores and so on. Adjoining the neighbouring farm, yet separate from the farmhouse, is a two storey office building.

Dating back to the origins of the farm, the first floor was originally used as a chapel to serve the local rural congregation. Since then, it has had a number of uses from an apple store to a thriving business base.

The gardens offer a wealth of hidden gems yet to be discovered. As you weave your way through the orchard, you enter a clearing from which you gain a true understanding of what ‘could be’.

Mature shrubs, trees, clematis and a plethora of plant species surround you on all sides.

This is a magical property that needs exploring to truly appreciate, and a loving guardian to bring it back to life.
