Description - This extremely impressive former farmhouse has been comprehensively refurbished by the current owners and now provides beautifully presented 5-bedroom accommodation extending to over 3,000 sq.ft. Each room is bright, superbly proportioned and finished to an extremely high standard, incorporating stylish, contemporary convenience and comfort amongst numerous character features and period details, such as Victorian fireplaces, coving and picture rails. Externally, the property occupies a plot of 0.37 acres, including a pretty, landscaped walled front garden, and a west-facing sun terrace. Some breathtaking, 180-degree views of surrounding moorland and countryside are on offer to the south and west, particularly from the kitchen/family room, whilst all of the front-facing rooms enjoy an outlook over the garden. Importantly, the property is being offered with no onward chain.

Accommodation - The accommodation is wonderfully presented and offers a great deal of versatility for active family life. On the front elevation, a stone porch leads into a large, warm and welcoming reception hallway with a well-appointed cloakroom to one side and limestone floor tiling which continues through much of the ground floor. The accommodation on this level includes: a beautifully bright, dual-aspect sitting room centred around a fireplace housing a log-burning stove; a home office with a newly fitted utility cupboard, beyond the sitting room; a very cosy and practical snug sitting room or study, featuring a former fireplace, and; a dedicated dining room located off the kitchen/family room, with an adjacent walk-in pantry. Located at the head of the hallway, the incredibly striking kitchen/family room is very much the hub of this home, providing versatile living space and enjoying panoramic views across the surrounding countryside towards Clearbrook. The kitchen itself is equipped with a superb range of cabinets and cupboards as well as a huge central island with a hard-wired power connection, providing additional storage, drawer space and a wine rack.
