4 bedroom farm house for sale

A rare opportunity to acquire a beautifully converted 19th century cottage, bursting with character and charm, set on a generous 1/3 acre plot with stunning open views to the front and rear. Formerly two cottages and once a hospital at the turn of the 20th century, this home blends historic features with versatile living spaces, offering practicality and opportunity for further enhancement.

The south-facing rear garden provides a delightful backdrop for outdoor living, while the property benefits from a detached double garage, workshop, home office (previously a dog grooming business with power and water), and a detached outbuilding, ideal for conversion to additional living space, further office space or a separate annexe, subject to the relevant permissions. The driveway offers ample off-road parking.

Inside, the quaint front door opens into a superb open-plan lounge and dining room, centred around a feature double inglenook fireplace with oak beams, Yorkstone flag flooring, bespoke shutters, and an elegant iron spiral staircase. Arched glazed double doors lead to the breakfast kitchen where the Yorkstone flooring continues and features dual-aspect windows, ceiling beams and a stable-style door to the rear garden. The inner lobby gives access to the guest WC with feature wall panelling, a useful walk-in pantry style store cupboard and the study/sitting room which is also dual aspect with feature beams and panelling and an electric fireplace.

Upstairs, the spiral staircase leads to a spacious landing with potential for sub-division to provide a fifth bedroom, second bathroom, or an en-suite to the principle bedroom. The landing provides access to two spacious dual-aspect double bedrooms and two smaller bedrooms alongside a generous family bathroom—all enjoying sweeping countryside views.

This property combines timeless charm, countryside tranquillity, and versatile living, offering an exceptional opportunity for those seeking a character home with practical outbuildings and scope to personalise.
