3 bedroom bungalow

Pretty stone built country property, rural yet not isolated with views over the valley at the rear.

Description

Higher Kinderfields Farm is a beautifully restored and upgraded three double bedroomed detached stone built farmhouse which has few equals for property of this age. With under-floor heating to the ground floor, top notch double glazed windows with French doors to the gardens to the south and well presented contemporary bathrooms including an en suite to the principal bedroom.
Under its stone flagged roof the property offers manageable accommodation without the responsibility of lot of garden and yet enjoys delightful views over the valley with its small brook to the rear.
The property is rural, yet no isolated, with the former barn converted to a house on the other side of the driveway and another at the rear which is pending planning permission for conversion. This is a perfect ‘lock up and go’ knowing there are likely to be neighbours to keep an eye on the place if you spend time away.
The front enclosed porch opens into the well proportioned dual aspect lounge with its wood burning stove and there are opening to each side of the chimney breast leading through into the separate dining or sitting room with a staircase leading off to the first floor.
The rear ground floor has been extended to include an informal dining or garden sitting room, again with a dual aspect and a tiled floor. This opens to the farmhouse kitchen with oak worksurfaces, a tiled floor, side window and an extractor hood over a range recess.
To the rear there is a large boot room/utility room with a Belfast sink and a door leading through to a ground floor cloakroom/shower room with a w.c. and wash hand basin. Adjoining this, with outside access, is a boiler room and store with the water treatment system.
On the first floor the landing gives access to the three double bedrooms and a well-appointed family bathroom with its roll top cast iron bath, separate shower and Velux window. The principal bedroom has a dual aspect and a step down into a well appointed en suite shower room with twin wash hand basins. The second bedroom enjoys a triple aspect with lovely rural views.
The gardens adjoin fields and extend to the south side of the house with gravel parking areas to both the front and rear accessed via the gated driveway.

Please note: the grazing land to the side and at the rear is not being sold with the property, likewise the building to the rear for which our clients are awaiting planning permission to create holiday accommodation which will use a separate access drive.

Services: Private water supply and drainage. Mains electricity.
