Description
Manor Farm House is a charming three bedroom family home of local stone under a tile roof. Originally a farm building dating back to circa 1600s, it was later converted to a two storey dwelling in 1983.
The property is approached via a private driveway leading off Bradford Lane. The drive then forks, with the right hand fork leading to the gravel parking area at the rear of the house and useful stone double garage. The left hand fork continues to the land and the back of the stable block.
On the ground floor of the house is a spacious Entrance Hall with doors leading to the dual aspect Drawing Room with large fireplace and Sitting Room with a woodburner. The spacious Kitchen has windows overlooking the stable yard and door through to the Boot Room with built in cupboard and downstairs WC.
On the first floor are three Bedrooms, a Family Bathroom and a separate WC with wash basin.
At the front of the house are steps leading up to the enclosed lawned garden with mature trees and shrubs.
The stable block is located at the rear of the house and can either be accessed from the gravel parking area or from the drive which continues past the house. The yard is centered around an enclosed post and rail fenced concrete yard and comprises 10 timber stables, a tack room and a gated under cover tie-up area.
At the back of the stable block is a useful general purpose open fronted steel framed barn used for hay and straw storage, with an enclosed hardcore yard area.
Manor Farm totals approximately 14 acres of attractive gently undulating pasture within a ring fence, divided into manageable sized enclosures. The majority of the land is bordered by mature hedgerows with the fields closest to the house having post and rail fencing and containing field shelters.
The land is gently undulating and classified as predominantly Grade 4 shallow lime-rich soils over chalk or limestone.
Further land is available by seperate negotiation.
A bridleway runs across the land, east to west, as shown on the sale plan.
