DESCRIPTION Low Foulgate Farm has been the subject of a program of refurbishment over recent years and offers superb accommodation that the owners have tastefully presented throughout.
The house and cottage are absolutely stunning. The owners have cleverly combined the original character of the home including exposed stone walls with modern additions such as the beautiful travertine en-suite bathrooms and newly installed bifold doors to the kitchen.
The amazing conversion of the annexe into a high end Holiday Cottage is simply beautiful and this commands fabulous occupancy rates and provides a great income. The property is sure to appeal to a huge spectrum of purchasers. From families to equestrian enthusiasts and keen walkers alike. The position of the home is enviable and would be difficult to improve. A home that purchasers would be proud to own.
Briefly comprising:
To the Ground Floor:
Approached through an impressive timber panelled door with large windows to all sides, the drawing room has a fabulous fireplace, staircase off with exposed stone wall to the side and rear pedestrian access door leading to the patio and garden. Off the drawing room is the inner hall with cloakroom off and office ideal for those working from home. The family room is a welcoming and cosy space with tremendous stone fire surround and exposed stone walls. This space flows into the kitchen which has recently fitted bi fold doors facing west making the most of the evening sun. Off the kitchen is a recently constructed pantry. A great space which has been designed purposely to conceal fridge/freezer, all food stuffs and pans on cleverly designed shelving. The utility room has a further cloakroom off and also leads to the large store which was converted from the garage.
To the first floor:
A beautiful galleried landing has exposed stone walls and windows to the front and rear. Adjacent to the window at the front is a delightful space for reading/studying. The guest bedroom is positioned to the front of the house and has exposed beams and stonework. The en suite shower room (as with all of the bathrooms) has had no expense spared in its refurbishment and would not look out of place in a Spa Resort. There is a further double bedroom to the rear with en-suite and views over the gardens and fields beyond. The master suite has a huge bedroom, en-suite bathroom and large walk in dressing room and again has views to the rear.
Anvil Cottage:
The adjacent cottage has been thoughtfully converted by the current owners. It offers extremely high quality two bedroom two bathroom accommodation which is very popular with walkers/ holiday makers and couples alike. The ground floor has an open plan sitting room with wood burning stove and kitchen area off. There is a super double/ twin bedroom with en-suite to the ground floor and to the first floor is a gorgeous master suite with feature slipper bath in the bedroom, perfect for a romantic stay, and additional en-suite shower room.
