UNICORN House is believed to date from 1431 and was originally four cottages and later a guest house and a restaurant. Now a striking example of a timber-framed village house, Unicorn House is a truly outstanding home, brimming with period features including exposed wall/ceiling and truss timbers, inglenook fireplaces, leaded windows and flagstone floors.
The well-proportioned and extremely flexible accommodation is arranged over two floors.
Of particular note is the expansive drawing room with triple aspect windows, exposed timbers and a superb stone fireplace housing a Clearview wood burning stove.
French doors open to the delightful enclosed rear garden with paved patio and a lawn edged with well stocked floral and herbaceous borders.
At the heart of the house is the kitchen/breakfast room with a good range of fitted storage, a two oven Aga, a Siemens electric oven, microwave and hob. The adjacent snug/family room has parquet flooring, a feature fireplace with wood burning stove and built-in cupboards and could be used as a formal dining room if preferred. There are four characterful double bedrooms at first floor level, three with ensuite bath rooms, the fourth with private WC.
One of the ensuites can also be used as a family bathroom.
The flexible layout of this beautiful house offers buyers the potential of bed and breakfast or holiday let accommodation.
