Fyfield Hall is an exceptional Grade I listed village house dating back to the twelfth century. This unique property is set in 3.54 acres of established grounds. Description At the heart of Fyfield Hall is an original aisled hall constructed from timbers dating between 1167 and 1185, representing one of England’s earliest surviving timber-framed structures. Originally the central manor of Fyfield, the house’s medieval structure has been lovingly extended and enhanced through the centuries, with the addition of sixteenth- and seventeenth-century cross-wings. Today, Fyfield Hall stands proudly restored, preserving an extraordinary array of historical features, from a striking red-brick chimney and staircase to herringbone-tiled floors and captivating exposed timbers. Spanning approximately 6,000 square feet, Fyfield Hall’s interiors are a masterclass in period elegance combined with luxurious modern amenities. A bespoke Chalon kitchen sits at the heart of the home, featuring handcrafted cabinetry, state-of-the-art appliances, and views that overlook the lush southern grounds. The home’s grand yet versatile layout includes formal entertaining spaces and cosy family rooms, all seamlessly connected for ease of living. Enter through a majestic medieval door to the breath-taking great hall, an impressive space with a red-brick inglenook fireplace and light-filled views of the surrounding grounds. The primary reception rooms, from the serene drawing room to the inviting snug, are beautifully presented with heritage colors and bespoke craftsmanship, including an exquisitely panelled library and custom joinery that nods to Fyfield Hall’s storied past. Upstairs, the five spacious bedrooms offer comfort and charm. The master suite, complete with a luxurious en suite bath, boasts nearly 21 feet of lavish space. Four additional double bedrooms and three beautifully appointed bathrooms are accessible via two separate staircases, providing both privacy and convenience. Fyfield Hall also includes a delightful, self-contained one-bedroom cottage, perfect for guests or extended family, featuring its own living room, kitchen, and shower room. Beyond the house, the extensive grounds unfold like a living canvas of English countryside. Landscaped lawns stretch southward, overlooking the scenic Fyfield Church, while a tranquil lake and mature trees add natural beauty along the eastern boundary. A leisure field to the west slopes gently towards the picturesque River Roding, creating an ideal space for relaxation or outdoor pursuits. The gravelled drive winds gracefully through the estate, culminating at a charming courtyard complete with garaging and a detached outbuilding, all nestled amidst beautifully maintained gardens.
