4 bedroom detached house

Scagglethorpe Grange is an appealing residential smallholding, comprising of attractive former farmhouse set within its own grounds of approximately 6.9 acres. The house bears many of the hallmarks of its Victorian heritage, including high ceilings, cornicing, panelled internal doors and a fine staircase with carved newel posts and balusters. Constructed of attractive brick elevations under a slate roof, the house is now in need of modernisation improvement, but offers fantastic potential. Subject to securing the necessary consents there is scope to extend, and two large attic rooms, currently accessed via a loft ladder, offer clear possibilities.

The accommodation amounts to almost 2,200sq.ft (excluding loft rooms) and comprises entrance hall, sitting room, living room, kitchen diner, rear hall/boot room, guest cloakroom and utility room. To the first floor, four generously proportioned double bedrooms and a large house bathroom lead off a galleried landing.

The front of the house faces south-east and overlooks its own paddock land, which extends to around 6.5 acres, and is made up mostly of two large fields, plus an additional holding paddock, where there are four stables and a tack room. A driveway provides ample room to park and leads to a garage, which is linked to the rear of the house via a home office.
