LOCATION

The location of the Farmhouse at Grains Ash Farm is quite simply remarkable and approaches over a long lane. The home has neighbouring properties and is a short walk / drive down to Meltham with its vast number of facilities including high quality schooling, supermarket, shops, restaurants and the like.

Garden

Outside the property stands in approximately 2. 6 acres in this lovely, elevated location, looking down the valley towards Meltham with Castle Hill and Emley Moor Mast in the distance. The fields are extremely well presented and have well established boundaries including fabulous dry-stone walling. The entrance is a broad gateway which gives access to the front driveway / yard and access to the home itself, but also to the large number of outbuildings. Close to the house are two store buildings used as solid fuel storage and as a workshop shed. There are three garage / workshops a little further down the yard area with a former stable currently being used as a woodstore. There is also a fodder store and additional storage. The combination of the buildings provides a huge amount of square footage and consideration to be given for converting into stabling / animal housing etc.

Garden

The paddocks, as previously mentioned, are well presented and the land stretches down to the brook. A particularly idyllic location with a banking area and pleasant views out over neighbouring land.

Parking - Driveway
