Description

Sheepcote Hill Farm is a detached period farmhouse featuring attractive brick elevations and sash windows, with almost 1,700 sq. ft of modern, elegant accommodation arranged over two floors.

There are two ground-floor reception rooms, both of which are to the front, off the reception hall. The slightly larger sitting room has a dual aspect and a limestone fireplace fitted with a log burner, while the second sitting room provides further space in which to relax, with its part-panelled walls and wood burning stove. The kitchen stretches across the back of the house and features shaker-style units in grey, as well as a breakfast bar. Adjoining the kitchen, there is a shower room and utility room providing further storage and space for home appliances.

Upstairs, the landing leads to four well-presented bedrooms, with the principal bedroom benefitting from built-in storage. The first floor also has a family bathroom with a contemporary, freestanding roll-top bathtub and a walk-in shower.

The detached annexe offers valuable further accommodation, and could be used for multigenerational living. It includes a generous open-plan kitchen and sitting area with an exposed brick feature wall, a wood burning stove and sliding glass doors opening to a patio area. There is also a utility room, two double bedrooms and a bathroom.

At the front of the property, the gravel driveway provides access to the house and annexe, and to the detached garaging block and workshop at the rear, which has extensive storage to its first floor. Additional outbuildings include three sheds for further garden storage. The garden at the front and rear has rolling lawns, bordered by mature trees and established hedgerows, as well as patio areas for al fresco dining, and large open meadows and paddocks beyond.
