If you are looking to escape to the country, then look no further...
Standing in an elevated position commanding breathtaking panoramic views towards Pendle Hill, the Trough of Bowland, Morecambe Bay and Lake District Fells, High Leys is an utterly charming rural farmstead with original farmhouse, ancillary accommodation, outbuildings and land.
The vendors purchased High Leys in 1983 and since then have gone about extending and renovating the property. It is with a heavy heart time for them to move on - in their own words "it's been our slice of paradise." However, this presents an exciting opportunity for new custodians to complete the work on the cottages, upgrade the farmhouse and The Gatehouse and delight in their own rural idyll.
Set around a charming cobbled courtyard, a large detached stone and slate barn, a small stone and slate detached single storey building, formerly a byre and housing full size table tennis table and chest freezer and a detached stone faced double garage, easily housing two cars and a similar sized area occupied by a fitted out workshop.
The farmhouse provides spacious and flexible accommodation with an approximate gross internal area of 2003 sq ft (186.1 sq m) excluding the external store. Dining room featuring original oak beams.
An entrance porch leads into a fully shelved pantry with original slate slabs, and onward into a fitted kitchen and on to a central dining room which is open to the family room. From the dining room, a short flight of stairs leads up to a dual aspect sitting room with sliding doors out to a seating terrace with chiminea and enjoying a lovely outlook across the ornamental ponds, small bridge and gardens beyond. An additional room off the sitting room, currently used as Bedroom 4 is open to the apex with gallery above, formerly a study but now a sewing room.
To the first floor, the landing with inset bookshelves gives access to three bedrooms off; two doubles and a single with study area and to a four piece bathroom.
The large detached barn and shippon to the south of the farmhouse has been converted into three residential units, for either holiday lets or permanent residential use (only part of the floor plan is shown on page 8). There is a snooker room with full size slate-bedded table and parking for one small car under and two pens with water bowls, formerly used for over wintering sheep and having the water pressurising, filtration and UV water treatment equipment over.
The snooker room, with full size snooker table (which will remain), has sufficient space for gym equipment without compromising the space.
The Gatehouse (Cottage 1 [938 sq ft / 87.1 sq m excluding small store]) is perfect for guests, dependent relatives or as a source of income. The accommodation comprises a spacious sitting room, a dining kitchen being part double height with mezzanine gallery above, two double bedrooms, one with fitted wardrobes and a shower room, all accessed through a small porch at the front and with stable door from the kitchen at the rear out to a covered flagged area and small garden.
The two, partially converted cottages which simply require plumbing and fitting out to be completed. Cottage 2 - 971 sq ft / 90.2 sq m, Cottage 3 - 736 sq ft / 68.4 sq m, both with open plan living/dining kitchens, two bedrooms and a shower room with Cottage 2 also having a utility room.
Delightful informal gardens surround the farmstead with three ornamental ponds to the rear, one with wooden feature bridge and a further pond at the entrance to the main garden with stone pack horse style bridge. In addition there are lawns, mature shrubs and flowers, fruit and vegetable garden, a stone built BBQ, an octagonal summerhouse, a two storey, part stone built dodecahedron-shaped greenhouse (former silage store) and strategically placed seating areas from which to enjoy the stunning views. There is also a small paddock with pond, historically used for pigs but more recently for hens and ducks.
Situated to the north of the farmstead, a wild flower meadow with a woodland shelter belt to the east, a wildlife haven and extending to c. 3 acres (1.21 hectares). From here you can hop over the stone wall boundary, onto open access land and onto Ingleborough summit.
In all, c. 4.1 acres (1.7 hectares).
The perfect combination of location, views, house, land and outbuildings offering a rural lifestyle sought and appreciated by many.
