Description
The property comprises a farmhouse, which has operated as a bed and breakfast property, a leisure suite, 2 holiday cottages and a holiday apartment, domestic and agricultural buildings, gardens and paddocks. The entire property lies within a ring-fence extending in total to approx. 5.81 acres.
The house stands at the eastern end of the property and backs onto the dale road, adjoined by the leisure suite. The main access into the property enters on the north side of the house and wraps around the house's garden to enter the yard. The cottages and the majority of the farm buildings lie to the south of the yard, but an L-shaped range lies to the east and also forms the north side of what is effectively a loose quadrilateral. The yard expands beyond these buildings to offer parking. A pond lies to the east of the cottages to complete the steading and the paddock land lies beyond this, to the south and east.
THE FARMHOUSE
Built in the late 17th / early 18th Century the farmhouse is constructed in finely coursed stone under a pantile roof. A classically Georgian looking building, the house has been used as a Bed and Breakfast business as well as a family home.
From the garden the principal front door opens into a hallway with part panelled walls and a staircase rising to the first floor. To the rear there is a cloakroom with WC and wash basin, and doors lead off to the dining room and lounge. The lounge has windows to the front and rear, a broad stone fireplace and a door that connects to the leisure suite - see later.
The dining room has a broad inglenook and window to the front plus a byre style door to the rear opening into a loggia opening out to the rear garden. From the dining room a broad arch opens through to the kitchen which has a bespoke arrangement of pitch pine cabinets with tiled worktops. A door opens through to the garden room, and further doors open to a pantry and a side hall. The garden room is timber framed and has doors opening out to the garden. The pantry is spacious, lying on the back of the house, with a door to the side hallway.
The side hall / boot room has a stable style door to the side, and doors opening to a coal store, a WC and to an integral garage. There is also a boiler room housing the oil-fired central heating boiler as well as having laundry positions for washing machine and tumble dryer.
The Wing
From the side hall a stair rises up to a landing at first floor level on the north side of the building where there is a window to the front and a walk-in store cupboard which has formerly been a photographic 'dark room'. From the landing, doors open to a box store room, which alternately could be an additional single bedroom with windows to the side and rear. On the other side of the landing is an office which is alternately a further double bedroom.
First Floor
The staircase rises from the entrance hallway to a first floor landing where doors open to a master bedroom suite, bedrooms 2 and 3 and a house bathroom.
The master bedroom suite comprises a double bedroom with a sash window to the front and built in wardrobes plus a connecting door into a bathroom at the rear with a shower, bath, WC, basin and bidet.
The second bedroom is also a double with a sash window to the front and an interconnecting door to the Jack 'n' Jill house bathroom lying to the rear. The house bathroom has a bath, WC, bidet and wash basin. The third bedroom is a small single room lying to the front.
Second Floor
The staircase rises again from the first floor, through a door, to the second floor landing which has rooflight windows to the rear. Off the landing lies a large, walk-in, linen cupboard and doors open to 2 further bedroom suites.
Bedroom suite 4 lies to the south side and has a twin bedroom with a rooflight window to the front and a window to the side. A connecting door opens into a partitioned bathroom with a panel bath with shower over, basin and WC.
Bedroom suite 5 lies on the opposite side of the landing and is essentially similar, but with a double bed rather than twin beds. It also has a partitioned bathroom to the rear.
Outside
The property has garden areas both to the front and the rear. The garden is divided by hedges and has formal lawns to either side of a central garden path in the middle section leading up to the front door, whilst the other areas to the sides are less structured but planted with fruit and vegetables, fruit trees, etc. To the rear the gardens slope down to the house from the drystone wall along the edge of the dale road.
THE LEISURE SUITE
Lying attached to the southern end of the farmhouse, with interconnecting back-to-back doors giving a direct connection from the lounge of the house through into to the swimming pool area, the leisure suite is a professional grade facility that is somewhat surprising.
Built of local stone under a pantile roof, the barn housing the facility is 2 stories tall but built into a hillside, so that there is a level entrance from the dale road, at the rear, and level access to the lower level from the house gardens / yard at the front.
The lower level is a fully tiled, heated swimming pool with 2 lanes, 18m in length, ringed by a wide tiled border with half tiled walls and a seating area with arched double doors to the yard and garden.
Recessed space includes a WC and a plant room with commercial quality heating and filtration systems. There are external doors to the front and side and a further door onto a solid stair rising up to the upper level of the building.
The upper floor can be accessed from the side, off the dale road, where a glazed door opens into a hallway leading through into a spacious reception lounge area, with a kitchenette off to the side.
From here there are doors to a hammam steam room, ladies and gents changing rooms with showers, and a separate WC.
A wide archway links from the reception lounge into a gym fitness area with a sloping roof and laminate flooring, housing a variety of aerobic fitness machines. The internal stair to the swimming pool descends from the far end of the fitness suite, and there is an external door where there is a flight of stone steps down into the garden.
The whole of this arrangement is exceptionally high quality, with many areas finished in fine-quality marble, such as the changing rooms, cloakroom and steam-room. There are also marble finishes in the entrance hallway and kitchenette.
THE HOLIDAY COTTAGES
The cottages lie to the south of the house and are a separately recorded listed building. Converted in around 1990, to an award-winning standard, the two-story stone-built building has a clay tile roof and is bisected by a central archway.
The building is divided into 2 cottages and a studio apartment, with snooker room also on the ground floor. The cottages have ample parking, away from the main house, and each unit has a designated 'garden' area for outside seating. The garage workshop adjoins this building.
Old Sheaf Store
The eastern end of the building is an end-terrace barn conversion cottage. The ground floor comprises 2 double bedrooms and a bathroom. Upstairs, there is an open plan living room with kitchen.
Threshing Barn
A mid-terrace barn conversion cottage with an open-plan living room and kitchen on the ground floor and double and twin bedrooms, plus a bathroom, at first floor level.
The Hayloft
Accessed via an external flight of stone steps on the end of the building, the Hayloft is a studio apartment barn conversion set at first floor level above the snooker room. The space is divided into a living room, a sleeping area with a double bed and a kitchenette. A bathroom is partitioned in a corner of the space.
Snooker Room
A ground-floor room housing a 9 foot long snooker table, dart board, etc.
