5 bedroom house

Sowerbys are delighted to bring to the market a stunning Grade II listed farmhouse. The home is positioned in a tranquil setting, dating back to 1767 and is offered to the market with no onward chain. During their ownership, our vendors have transformed the property, making it ideal for multigenerational living, complete with a bedroom and a shower to the ground floor.

A long sweeping gravel drive leads to the front of the property and provides a great deal of privacy and ample off-road parking for multiple vehicles. The property impresses as soon as you step foot inside. The rooms throughout are all bright, airy and packed full of character. The kitchen/breakfast room is beautifully appointed, centred around the kitchen island. It also includes a range of base and wall units, an Aga and a hidden staircase. From the kitchen a door leads down to a twin cellar, but also gives access through to the dining room, which is currently being utilized as a play room.

The sitting room is spectacular, complete with large original sash windows, an inglenook style fire place housing a beautiful log burner and exposed beams, this room is packed with character and feel spacious and bright. The utility room is larger than a conventional size and has plenty of space for white goods. There is also a quirky old fashioned bread oven. Completing the ground floor space is the separate double bedroom and shower room.

Moving to the first floor the property features high ceilings and huge bedrooms. All three bedrooms to this floor are really good size doubles. The en-suite is perhaps larger then the bathroom itself. At the very top, in the eaves of this property there is yet another bedroom, a study and access to further storage space. The exposed beams and vaulted ceilings make this space feel idyllic
.
The outside space is as generous as the property itself. To the front, the swiping drive through the mature trees and hedges leads to the property and provides ample parking spaces. The rear garden is nicely divided. There is the entertainment area but also the working garden. Here you will find a double garage accessed from the side drive, a courtyard, a newly added patio area and the rest is mostly laid to lawn with mature trees and shrubs. To the rear, the garden was adapted for those who love to potter about, our vendors keep chickens here and grow their own vegetables.
