This handsome farmhouse has eight acres of land and is in an idyllic, secluded location at Dalton
THE VENDORS SAY
When was the house built?
We built the house to our own specification in 2000 and have lived and raised our family here over the past 24 years.
What first attracted you to it?
We just loved the peaceful location and the stunning views from the gardens yet still being close to amenities and, as our sons grew, schools and sports facilities as well as the motorway connections for work.
How have you changed the house?
We have opened-up and extended the kitchen to provide an additional living area. Adding a further snug has given the house a more contemporary feel.
What will you miss most about the house?
The tranquillity. It has been such a wonderful family home with some riotously happy times but the overriding impression is the complete calmness it brings.
It’s an amazing space to do as you please; from family sports days, riding the horses, a glass of wine and good book or entertaining friends, it has all been bliss.
THE AGENTS SAY:
This beautiful farmhouse is approached via a private road which meanders to electronically-operated gates and on to the turning circle and parking space. It’s a handsome, secluded farmhouse, set in eight acres of land – one acre of formal gardens and seven acres of grazing land.
The farmhouse is full of characterful charm alongside contemporary features and the immaculately finished accommodation includes a spacious entrance hall with galleried landing and boot room, a triple aspect lounge, formal dining room, and an attractive snug/family room. There is a bespoke and well-appointed hand-built living-dining-kitchen, and a separate kitchen-complementary utility room. There are four bedrooms, including a spacious master with en-suite and second double bedroom with en-suite, and two further double bedrooms served by the family bathroom.
The landscaped gardens have far-reaching pastoral views and incorporate a stone-built folly and stunning detached sunroom. The seven acres of well-maintained and fenced grazing land is perfectly balanced alongside the excellent equestrian facilities which include five stables, two tack rooms, a spacious storage barn and a tractor shed.
