Boasting four storeys of sheer loveliness, The Old Dairy is an eclectic mix of contemporary, traditional and the downright cool.

Park right outside, where you’ll also find a useful courtyard area behind wrought iron gates. And, across the threshold, the character of this gorgeous home embraces you with the warmest of welcomes. There’s original flagstone flooring underfoot here in the open plan kitchen and dining room, and beautiful beams high overhead.

Bespoke solid wooden cabinetry, hand-finished in a vibrant shade of turquoise, contrasts with expanses of black granite worktops. Whip up a hearty brunch on the Rayburn cast iron range cooker. An additional oven, halogen hob and integrated appliances, makes entertaining effortless. You may even find yourself hosting Christmas dinner for all the family! And, for midweek suppers, a logburner keeps the dining area warm and toasty.

An inner hallway leads through to the spacious living room. Wide wooden flooring and a fireplace, flanked by built-in storage, feature in this bright space. There’s plenty of room for oversized marshmallow-sofas and stylish coffee tables in here. Kick off those shoes and curl up.

We love the flow from the living room into the airy conservatory, which is fabulous as an additional reception room. It’s usable 24/7 due to its system of roof blinds, keeping the temperature comfortable all year round. And, in summer months, open up the double doors into the garden.

The hallway provides really convenient access to the garden and former stable block. And just off the hallway, there’s a downstairs WC with vaulted ceilings.

When it’s time to get the popcorn out, the lower ground floor plays host to an über-cool cinema room, complete with impressive brick-barrelled ceiling. There’s a study and utility room on this floor too.

On the first floor, you’ll find three double bedrooms featuring a range of stripped back floors, feature fireplaces and original sash windows. All are generously proportioned and have the use of the family bathroom.

The Principal en suite bedroom is located on the second floor, where the dual aspect windows maximise the light, and the solid wooden floor and exposed brick chimney breast and timbers add character to the space.

The en suite is incredibly capacious, with a double basin vanity unit, top-notch fittings and double shower. There’s even a dressing area. But the pièce de résistance is the freestanding bath, sitting proudly on the raised platform. She’s the star of the show and nobody puts Baby in the corner, right?

Outside, the rear walled garden is beautifully maintained with a large paved terrace for al fresco dining, and a blend of lawns, well-stocked borders and blooming beds, along with a timer-framed greenhouse for home-grown fruit and veg. Meanwhile, the additional decked sun terraces are ideal for a spot of lounging and a morning coffee with the papers.

The converted former stable block, with its oak flooring and window seats, would make a fantastic gym, yoga studio or home office. It’s such an adaptable space that the only real limit here is your imagination.
