5 bedroom house

Sowerbys are honoured to bring to market a picturesque farmhouse with attached barn conversion, forming one substantial home in a rural setting and enjoying the most wonderful farmland views and private grounds measuring close to ¾ of an acre (stms). Believed to date back to 1720's, this property bursts with character features throughout, too many to list in a short paragraph. Our vendors have spent a significant amount of money maintaining and updating the property making sure that the new owners can move right in without having to lift a finger.

Upon entry there is a reception hallway with painted brick flooring, access to a shaker style kitchen/breakfast room with a must have Aga and a sitting room with original restored inglenook fireplace housing a wood-burning stove and beautiful exposed beams creating a sense of comfort and tranquillity. Completing this part of the property is the must have study. Off the inner lobby, a set of stairs lead to the upper level giving access to four bedrooms and the family bathroom. The principal bedroom also benefits from having access to its own en-suite bathroom.

Linking the house to the barn is a central corridor with a laundry room, a shower room which has recently been fitted and a further guest bedroom that benefits from having access to a contemporary en-suite shower room. Furthermore, there is access to a grand formal dining room with extra high ceilings, dual aspect windows and exposed beams; dining and entertaining your friends and family here will be nothing but a joy. Completing this part of the building and the hub of this home is the barn itself. With its double height ceiling, log burner and a beautiful mezzanine study and french doors leading to the rear patio area, you can easily see how this room has become the central point of this amazing home.

Outside the grounds have been meticulously landscaped to create an ideal space to make long lasting memories. The electric gates keep this property private. The gravel drive leads to the garage/workshop and the newly added double car barn shed. The front and rear gardens are both mature and well established, displaying a variety of mature trees, shrubs and flower beds. There is a gazebo ideal for the afternoon tea, a potting shed, log store and fantastic farmland views. To the rear of the barn there is the perfect space to dine alfresco and the hot tub will allow you to turn afternoons into great evenings. With various seating areas in the garden, one can easily lose track of time whilst admiring the views and taking in the fresh air that a property out in the country can offer.
