From Medieval Banquets To Modern Family Living, Church Farm Has Seen It All! With Church Farm you could be the proud owner of Six Centuries Of Character!
Dating back in part to the 14th century, Church Farm is a remarkable Grade II listed residence steeped in history and brimming with character. Situated in the heart of the sought-after market town of Penkridge, this substantial family home offers over three floors of versatile accommodation, including four double bedrooms, two bathrooms and five reception rooms.
Combining period charm with generous living space, Church Farm enjoys an enviable location within walking distance of Penkridge town centre, its popular twice-weekly market, local amenities and railway station, providing convenient links to Birmingham, Manchester and London.
From the moment you step inside, the rich heritage of Church Farm is immediately apparent. The welcoming reception hall showcases exposed timber beams, a feature fireplace and tiled flooring, setting the tone for the wealth of character found throughout the home.
The cosy living room enjoys a delightful bay window to the front elevation, flooding the room with natural light and complementing the exposed beams and impressive fireplace that forms its focal point.
A passageway from the reception hall leads to the magnificent principal reception room, arguably the heart of the home. Featuring a dramatic vaulted ceiling with exposed beams, an impressive inglenook-style fireplace and a charming mezzanine gallery above, this exceptional space is ideal for entertaining, formal dining or relaxing with family and friends. The gallery level offers an excellent opportunity for a home office or reading area.
Double doors open into a spacious dining room overlooking the rear garden, creating a seamless flow through to the kitchen/breakfast room. With its partially vaulted ceiling, generous proportions and garden views, the kitchen provides a bright and inviting space with plenty of potential for modern family living.
A further reception room offers excellent flexibility and could serve as a snug, home office or ground-floor bedroom. Completing the ground floor is a convenient guest WC, staircase access to the upper floors and a useful cellar.
The first floor continues the property's characterful theme, with exposed timbers and period detailing throughout. The impressive principal bedroom features vaulted ceilings, exposed beams and a generous dressing room, together with a substantial en-suite bathroom.
A further spacious double bedroom and the family bathroom are also located on this floor.
The second floor provides two additional double bedrooms, both light-filled and generously proportioned, making them ideal for family members or visiting guests.
The mature rear garden offers a wonderful private retreat, predominantly laid to lawn and interspersed with established shrubs and planting. A substantial patio area adjacent to the house provides the perfect setting for outdoor dining and entertaining, while the backdrop of the historic church glimpsed through the trees creates a truly picturesque setting.
Additional features include mature apple trees, a traditional brick-built barbecue with chimney and a charming summerhouse, all contributing to the garden's appeal.
To the front, a delightful cottage-style garden enhances the property's kerb appeal, while ample off-road parking is available to the side of the house.
Our Seller says...
"Church Farm has been the heart of our family for many decades. The original oak beams, historic fireplaces and unique character create a warmth and atmosphere that simply cannot be replicated. The spectacular reception room has hosted countless family celebrations and remains particularly magical during Christmas.
The gardens have brought us immense joy over the years, from harvesting apples for homemade pies to relaxing in the summerhouse on sunny afternoons. One of our favourite aspects of living here is the perfect balance between village life and countryside tranquillity. Turn one way and you're moments from Penkridge's thriving centre, local shops, cafés and railway station; turn the other and you're surrounded by peaceful country lanes and open countryside.
We shall miss Church Farm dearly, but our decision to remain in Penkridge speaks volumes about what a wonderful place it is to call home."
