5 bed detached house for sale

Selsfield Road, Turners Hill RH10

Rashes Farm House is a wonderful family home set in a very special location with far reaching views across the surrounding countryside.

The property is approached via a long private lane, with extensive views across open farmland. The private gravel drive is large enough to accommodate several vehicles. The original part of the property was built in the early 18th century with later additions in the late 18th and early 19th centuries. Rashes Farm House offers over 2,500 sqft of living space and has been sympathetically modernised, creating a sociable and spacious home.

The accommodation is laid out over three floors and offers light and spacious living spaces throughout. The ground floor has a large vaulted farmhouse kitchen with an aga, woodburning stove and a large separate pantry with parquet flooring. There is a stunning formal 25' double aspect dining room, and a beautiful beamed sitting room with an inglenook fireplace and wood burning stove. The fifth bedroom / study and ensuite cloakroom / laundry complete the ground floor accommodation. In addition there is an extensive wine cellar in the basement.

Leading up the stairs to the first floor landing there are three lovely good-sized double bedrooms with built-in wardrobes. The principal bedroom has an ensuite shower room and there is a well appointed family bathroom. On the second floor is an additional large double bedroom with ceiling light.

The house sits in the centre of its own plot and is mainly laid to lawn with various mature specimen trees, herbaceous borders, fenced vegetable garden, a mature apple tree and large garden shed / store. Further, there is a brick outbuilding currently used for storage but, subject to the necessary planning consents, could be developed into additional accommodation or a home office.
