6 bedroom house

Dolphin Farm is situated in a delightful village setting surrounded by open countryside yet within easy walking distance to the local amenities as well as being easily accessible to a host of major routes. Ideal for a buyer wanting rural living in a substantial period property but still within easy reach of a village and the local towns and cities in the north-west, this property offers a rare mix of superb residential accommodation together with an extensive range of ancillary space, facilities, and outbuildings; all set within a large plot with gardens to two sides extending to approximately 2 acres surrounded by open fields with great views beyond.

The period grade ll listed farmhouse built in a Georgian style dates back to around the 1700s and is brimming with instant kerb appeal. It has been extensively modernised by our clients and is well presented and proportioned with a high specification of fittings, a large amount of natural light and an attractive modern interior providing excellent modern family accommodation and lots of entertaining space both inside and out.

Gardens and patio areas surround the house to two sides with excellent ancillary space in some adjoining brick-built stables, a barn and a separate coach house, which would be an excellent choice for an annexe, and separate garaging.

The buildings offer considerable scope for further development subject to relevant planning permissions.

The ground floor comprises a lounge with wooden beams and a cast iron fireplace, a snug, downstairs WC, a living room, all with flagged stone flooring, and a carpeted family room/ 6th bedroom,  leading to a modern open plan kitchen diner with tiled flooring and a wall of glass overlooking the garden, and a separate tiled utility room.
