Hall Farm

A fine Grade II Listed 6 bedroomed farmhouse together with a range of traditional farm buildings, stables, modern farm buildings and paddocks running down to the River Soar, in all 4.529 acres or thereabouts. The Farmhouse offers extensive, adaptable accommodation with ample space for home working and offices. The property is delightfully situated within the medieval village of Cotes, adjacent to Cotes Bridge and a beautiful stretch of the River Soar, boasting wildlife. The property is convenient for the A60 with Loughborough town centre approximately 2 miles and Nottingham city approximately 12 miles.

The house is traditionally built with painted brick elevations, pan tiled roof and a well slate 'cat-slide' roof to the rear elevation. A new gas fired boiler has been installed February 2022 and most windows are double glazed.

The traditional barn, a range of stables together with a crew yard and a modern general purpose farm building provide amenity value and equestrian facilities. There is an extensive hard standing yard with security gated access onto Stanford Lane. Facilities also include a round horse exercise pen, feed stores and former pig sties.

The accommodation provides on the ground floor a front reception hall, two reception rooms, kitchen, dining/sitting room, utility, living room and study. There is cellar accommodation. The first floor accommodation is inter-connected with two staircases forming three principal bedrooms, dressing room and bathroom, 3/4 bedrooms, bathroom and access to a very usable attic room. In all the property provides approximately 4,250 sq.ft internal floor space.
