A recently refurbished and substantial attached Grade II Listed home with history dating back to the 17th Century. Immaculate accommodation with period features throughout, off-road parking for several cars, detached garage and stunning gardens set within a plot exceeding 0.5 of an acre.


Set in the heart of sought after Tintinhull, Leaches Farm is a visually appealing and characterful Grade II Listed home.Constructed of local Hamstone under a tiled roof, the property offers an attractive Georgian double fronted façade with a beautiful oak door to the centre that opens to a welcoming and generous hallway with large reception rooms either side. The beautifully proportioned sitting room features a stone mullion window to the front with these also to be found in the other rooms at the front of the house at both ground and first floor levels. The sitting room has a focal point stone fireplace with wood burner in situ and exposed block flooring.

The second reception room, currently used as a dining room, also features a Hamstone fireplace with a fitted wood burner. To the rear is a large kitchen/breakfast room featuring an attractive range of wall and floor cupboards complemented by composite work surfacing, a two oven gas fired AGA together with provision for a freestanding electric cooker. Dishwasher plumbing, exposed ceiling timbers and a lovely aspect towards the beautiful gardens. Beyond the kitchen is the home office/study that opens into the conservatory and also separately into the refurbished utility room/WC.

On the first floor are three principal bedrooms, all at the front of the house with mullion windows and having higher than average ceiling heights which provide a high level of natural light.

The master bedroom suite is very spacious and features twin sets of built in wardrobes, exposed roof timbers and a pretty en suite bathroom. This offers a white suite with bath, basin and WC together with a Velux sky light and a separate side window for good natural light. Bedrooms two and three are both ample doubles, supported by a nicely appointed bathroom that has a shower enclosure, bath, vanity unit and WC.

Completing the first floor is a further room offering a multitude of uses with sloping ceilings, exposed roof timbers and good natural light.

The second floor takes up the vast majority of the substantial roof space and is not compromised by particularly low ceilings. There are two fabulous bedrooms with one having a large walk in storage room which appears to offer opportunities for an en suite if needed (subject to any necessary consents). Further on this floor is also a "book nook" and a linen store that houses the hot water tank.
