Sowerbys are delighted to bring to market a beautiful three bedroom farmhouse sitting on a one acre plot (STMS). Our vendors have lived here for over 43 years, but a downsize will allow someone else to take over the reins. There is huge potential in the site as a whole, where in addition to the primary residence, it also includes a barn ripe for conversion and scope for a building plot, both of which are subject to obtaining the relevant planning permissions. One must visit this property to fully appreciate everything that it has got to offer.
Being situated on the edge of the village, the property benefits from the most wonderful of views - open fields as far as the eye can see. The property feels extremely private also - surrounded almost all the way round by mature hedging.
The Farm House
Through the front door the entrance hall gives access to the reception rooms and the stairs leading to the upper level. The sitting room is of a great size - with triple aspect windows and a must-have must have log burner, this room is flooded with natural light and it feels like the ideal space to retreat to late at night. Off the sitting room is a good size study, also with dual aspect windows making working from home a joy. Typical to what was once a working farmhouse, the kitchen is compact but well kitted out and features everything you need, with a range of base and wall units, integral appliances and views over the garden. Our vendors have added a breakfast room and this offers the perfect space to enjoy a morning coffee. Off the kitchen is a good sized dining room with further access to the conservatory and utility room, and completing the ground floor space is a recently fitted WC and the boiler room housing a recently commissioned boiler.
Upstairs, the bright landing gives access to three double bedrooms and the family bathroom. Two of the three bedrooms benefit from built in wardrobes, and the family bathroom has also recently been updated.
The Barn
This is for sure a little golden nugget! It is hard not to fall in love with the character in this substantial barn, with its beautiful brickwork, stained glass, and exposed beams. Having previously had plans drawn up to convert the barn into a residential dwelling, this has the potential to become something special (subject to planning permission) - perhaps that multi-generational property you have been looking for.
In addition, there is potential for a building plot. Our vendor was not successful in gaining planning permission back in 2015, however, given the amount of new homes which have since been constructed on School Road, one could resubmit some new plans and see where it can go.
There are two access gates leading to the property from the road which would make an easy transition should a purchaser choose to develop this property further. A gravel drive provides parking for several vehicles and there is also access to a good sized garage. The grounds are meticulously landscaped, from flower beds to mature trees, shrubs and beautifully crafted topiary men - our vendors have truly embraced their surroundings creating one-of-a-kind gardens for themselves and their family to enjoy.
