Wellhouse Farm is one of the oldest buildings within the local area dating back to the 16th Century. Originally thought to be a late medieval timber-framed house although the triangular lintel date stone on the front wall dated 1576 probably marks the period when the house was substantially re-built in stone. It became part of a Moravian Church settlement established in 1752 and enjoys some semi rural views to the front, it now offers a super opportunity for a buyer to create a magnificent FAMILY HOME. Grade II Listed, it offers a large, versatile footprint with some fine period features and comprises stone flagged hallway, TWO RECEPTION ROOMS, kitchen, store/office, rear hall/utility, four sizeable bedrooms, the master over 19ft in length, with modern shower room. Requiring updating which will be subject to Grade II Listing rules, it does benefit from GCH and modern boiler, driveway parking, enclosed rear garden and is offered with no chain.
