Description

Originally dating back to the 1520s with later additions, Holgate Farm is a beautifully preserved Grade II listed home set within about 0.57 acres. Rich in character and charm, the property offers versatile living space across three floors, along with a separate, self-contained two-bedroom annex perfect for multi-generational living or as a source of additional income.

Spanning approximately 2,860 sq ft, the main house is full of period features including exposed beams and vaulted ceilings. You’re welcomed into an entrance porch that leads through to the kitchen/breakfast room which is the hub of the house and features a kitchen island with a breakfast bar and a traditional Aga. Off the kitchen is a spacious living room. From here, you can access the dining room, which opens directly onto the garden, as well as a utility room and cloakroom. There is a cosy sitting room with an exposed brick fireplace and wood burner, while a study and further office provide flexible space for work or hobbies.

Upstairs, the first floor presents a striking principal bedroom with vaulted ceilings, exposed beams, and a luxurious en suite bathroom featuring a freestanding roll-top bath and separate shower. Two further bedrooms and a shower room complete this level. The second floor offers two additional bedrooms.

The annex offers independent accommodation with its own kitchen/breakfast room, ground floor shower room, and sitting room with double doors leading to the garden. A second bedroom is located on the ground floor, while the principal bedroom is upstairs. Vaulted ceilings and exposed beams continue the characterful theme throughout.

Outside, the property is approached via a gravelled in-and-out driveway leading to a double garage. A pretty front lawn is framed by mature shrubs and trees, while the rear garden features a patio area and a raised decked pergola perfect for entertaining. The garden is bordered by hedging and enjoys open views across the surrounding fields.

In total, the property, annex, and outbuildings extend to approximately 4,393 sq ft.
