The Hay Waggon Inn, High Street, Hartfield, TN7

Description

Charles Century are delighted to present this charming three-bedroom semi-detached home, formerly the renowned Hay Waggon Inn, dating back to the 16th century. Converted into two private residences less than ten years ago, it retains much of its original character and charm.

The property is approached via a shared porch and entered into a spacious open-plan dining and living area. This welcoming room features exposed beams, a cosy sitting area with log burner and a front-facing window. French doors open directly onto the patio, creating a seamless indoor–outdoor flow. A hallway leads to the remaining ground-floor rooms and stairs to the cellar. Also on this level are a study, WC, utility room and a large kitchen/breakfast room, finished to a high standard with a central island, integrated appliances and an AGA.

On the first floor, there are two well-proportioned bedrooms with fitted wardrobes, along with a family bathroom and separate shower room. The second floor offers a versatile snug/living space—ideal as a fourth bedroom—leading to an additional guest bedroom.

Outside, the property enjoys a private garden with patio and lawn, a block-built tiled outbuilding, and access to the oak-framed carport with power via a secure gated lane or directly from the garden.
