SELLER'S INSIGHT We moved into Greenside in 2007 and immediately fell in love with the warmth and character of this 1420 medieval hall house with its exposed timber frame and cosy fireplaces.

It's position overlooking the village green together with the lovely countryside walks nearby have all added to the magic of living here for nearly 20 years.

This fascinating, historical building with its character features has been a complete joy to us, from summer garden parties to family Christmas get togethers.

We have made a million happy memories here and will be sad to move on.

We have added some more contemporary home comforts to it which have all been done sympathetically and in keeping with the age and grace of the building.

We have loved our time as custodians of this beautiful home and hope the next family to live here will love it as much as we have.

STEP INSIDE The front door opens into a welcoming entrance porch, setting the tone with exposed timbers, warm character, and views through to the beautifully preserved period interiors.

The sitting room is a wonderfully inviting space, full of charm, with deep-set windows, exposed beams overhead, and a striking brick fireplace housing a classic stove.

Soft light filters through the traditional leaded windows, enhancing the calming ambience and highlighting the rich textures of the original beams and timberwork.

This is a room designed for relaxation, cosy in winter beside the fire, yet bright and uplifting during the warmer months.

An open walkway leads seamlessly into the dining room, perfectly positioned for both family mealtimes and formal entertaining.

This space continues the theme of character, with exposed beams and an additional feature fireplace, creating an intimate and atmospheric setting for gatherings.

The farmhouse kitchen is truly the heart of the home, offering timeless cabinetry, a range cooker, and a delightful fireplace that reinforces its rustic heritage.

It is a room that blends authenticity with practicality, ideal for both everyday cooking and hosting. A separate utility area and ground-floor cloakroom add further convenience.
