A magnificent country estate offering over 9,600 sq ft of versatile accommodation nestling within grounds of about 5.2 acres. Ideal for multi generational living or business opportunities.
Description
Pocket Gate Farm comprises conversions and extensions to a substantial range of granite and brick built outbuildings around a central courtyard together with skilful extension and integration of a former farmhouse to create a substantial suite of self-contained accommodation.
The property has extensive split level accommodation of considerable size, character and quality, integrating both the original architectural heritage of the barns together with the very latest in Hi-tech insulation and zoned oil fired central heating..
Original features include magnificent trusses, exposed brickwork, window and door openings being dressed in exposed brickwork, many with deep granite sills. The centre piece rooms of the house are the magnificent galleried dining room with its cathedral ceiling and split level lounge with two full height glass windows and part cathedral ceiling. In addition is a split level full sized billiard room and reception hall together with a 40'2" x 12'10" living/dining/kitchen. Three of the reception rooms are served by multi-fuel burners within tasteful surrounds.
The five bedrooms and three bathrooms are divided over two floors and all the rooms enjoy magnificent open views by virtue of the property's elevated rural location.
The attached former farmhouse and converted barns add great flexibility to the property being used partly as an office with study lending themselves to leisure facilities with further accommodation. The building benefits from its own bathroom, kitchen downstairs WC/cloakroom, two internal staircases and one external staircase.
The triple garage is of a particularly good size with first floor rooms which provide further potential. The surrounding gardens and paddocks form part of a site of special scientific interest, with an abundance of bird life including owls, jays, ducks and moorhens. Two noticeable features being large interconnecting ponds (one with an island) and an extremely attractive large granite outcrop with an abundance of natural wildflowers, shrubs and trees.
In all, a quite outstanding country property in an equally outstanding location for which early viewing is highly recommended.
Location
The property is situated within the heart of Charnwood Forest neighbouring Charnwood Golf Club, well known for its unspoilt woods, walks and local attractions such as the Beacon and 'Old John' both of which are two of the highest vantage points in Leicestershire. Originally a volcanic area, local granite and Swithland slate has been used as building material for many hundreds of years.
The nearby village of Woodhouse Eaves offers village facilities including primary school, shops, four popular local pubs, restaurant and church. More extensive local facilities are available at nearby Loughborough and Leicester, the M1 at Markfield affording fast access to both north and south. The Intercity line at Leicester affords a direct train service to St Pancras, London.
