6 bedroom farm house for sale

BRIEF DESCRIPTION This is a most lovely, light and spacious traditional Grade II Listed Farmhouse where the grandeur of the Reception Hallway, Drawing Room and Principal Bedroom are complemented by the warm and welcoming Kitchen, Lounge and Dining Room - and all set in a superb Garden plot with countryside views.

Although there is the impressive Reception Hall to the front of the property, you'll probably enter the property through the Entrance Porch and Breakfast Kitchen as these are closest to the gravelled Parking area. The Kitchen is a lovely light and welcoming space with an excellent range of units with a large oil-fired Aga cooker, space for your dishwasher, composite sink and a walk-in pantry cupboard. Off the Kitchen is the large traditional Pantry with the original flooring and shelves with a Belfast sink and space for a large American-style fridge freezer.

An inner Hall leads you into the main Hallway which an impressive space with the original tiled floor, a sweeping staircase up to the first floor Landing. To your right is the Lounge, which is a cosy space full of original features including beams and an open fireplace, and an archway leads through to the generous Dining Room which has exposed floorboards and inset shelving. The Drawing Room is a lovely, light space with a high ceiling with cornice, large sash windows with shutters, exposed floorboards and a feature fireplace housing a wood burning stove.

Completing the ground floor accommodation is an inner Hallway that leads to the Utility/Boot Room which has a door out to the Garden and the ground floor WC.

Returning to the Reception Hallway, and the wide staircase takes you up to the split-level first floor landing off which is the Principal Bedroom. This mirrors the Drawing Room in its sense of light and space, with the sash windows, high ceiling and feature marble fireplace. An En Suite Shower Room has been created in the corner of this large bedroom, with a walk-in shower.

There are five further generous Double Bedrooms on this floor - all full of character, some with the original fireplaces and one is presented as a Study - and two Family Bathrooms one with a roll-top bath and the other with both a bath and corner shower.

A door from the Landing opens to a staircase up to the Second Floor which has a large Landing area with eaves storage, a generous room which is currently being used as storage and a further room that was previously used as a Bedroom. All the rooms on this floor would need some updating.

Externally, the property sits within a wonderful Garden and Grounds plot of approximately three acres. Beautifully maintained gardens wrap around the house with formal lawns and mature trees, shrubs and herbaceous borders, with a path leading to a Woodland Garden. There's also a small Paddock behind the property.

To the front of the property is the large, gravelled Parking area and to your left is a pretty Grade II Listed Barn which has a large storeroom and stairs up to three rooms which would have the potential as an annex – subject to the necessary Planning Permissions - giving you additional flexible living or for running a business from home. The outbuildings include two open-fronted garages, a barn housing three traditional stables and tack room, the former open-fronted Piggery which is now used as storage and a garden shed.

This really is a very special property that demands a viewing to appreciate the wonderful setting, the space available and potential it offers. To arrange a viewing, please call the team at our Market Drayton office.
