3 Bed in Staplecross (oc-rh1162)

Little Orchard is set in the grounds of Orchard Farm and is located next to the owners' family home, but benefits from its own separate entrance and garden. The property is a 13 acre equestrian smallholding, with horses being the main focus of the property. Free-range chickens and ducks wander round the farmhouse garden, (and occasionally wander a little further). The inquisitive farm cat likes to see who’s visiting, and the friendly Labradors are also keen to say hello.


This superb 3 bedroom conversion is all on one level and has been styled to the highest standards with great attention to the smallest detail. It has been converted to be energy efficient and as eco-friendly as possible. Thermally efficient, it is warm and cosy in the winter, and cool in the summer. The large expanse of roof has been utilised for harvesting solar energy, and the property is heated using electric heating and there is also a wood-burning stove in the sitting room.


There are French doors opening onto a terraced area with fantastic views across the adjoining fields and woodland with direct access to the forestry commission land, making it ideal for keen walkers. There are three double bedrooms, one with an en-suite and a spacious well-equipped kitchen with the dining table at its heart - the perfect place for family meals or just catching up over a cup of tea or a chilled glass of wine. The local area around the property is full of good country pubs and places to eat.
