Offered with no onward chain.

The ground floor comprises two fabulous reception rooms, one of which opens into a bespoke timber-built garden room that floods the space with natural light. The generous kitchen diner is a true centrepiece, featuring quartz worktops, extensive storage, and a quality range cooker. A convenient ground-floor shower room complements the main bathroom, which is newly fitted with a modern three-piece suite. Upstairs, well-proportioned double bedrooms offer great flexibility, including a generous attic room with its own lounge area. The property also benefits from a dedicated bar with W.C. And utility space, an external storage barn or workshop, and a single garage. The versatile outbuildings provide further potential for conversion into a home office or gym, catering to a range of lifestyle requirements.

The farmhouse is set within a stunning 0.6-acre plot, featuring award-winning landscaped gardens designed by Phil Hirst, winner of Best Show Garden at the rhs Chatsworth Flower Show. The grounds are a true highlight, with manicured lawns, mature trees, and thoughtfully designed planting that create a picturesque setting. Spacious patio areas are perfect for outdoor entertaining, while the summer house, complete with terrace and fire pit, offers an inviting space to host gatherings throughout the year. The gated driveway provides secure off-road parking for multiple vehicles.

This remarkable property offers not only a beautiful home but also exceptional outdoor spaces with ample scope for further personalisation.

Redbrik securemovetm - important please read:

Redbrik is marketing this property with the benefit of Redbrik SecureMoveTM. Redbrik has introduced SecureMoveTM to help speed up the sales process, minimise sale fall-throughs and give more certainty to both the Seller and the Buyer. Purchasers will benefit from the Buyer Information Pack (bip), which we have created with our legal partners, to give buyers more information before they agree to purchase.

The pack includes:

TA6 (Property Information Form)

TA10 (Fittings and Contents)

Official Copy of the Register

Title Plan

Local Search*

Water and Drainage Search*

Coal and Mining Search*

Environmental Search*

(Redbrik has ordered the local, drainage, coal and environmental searches; we will add these to the bip as they become available)

Redbrik SecureMoveTM allows the sale process to be completed significantly quicker than a ‘normal sale’. This is because the legal work, usually done in the first four to eight weeks after the sale is agreed, has already been completed. The searches, which can take up to five weeks, are ordered on the day the listing goes live and are transferable to the successful Buyer as part of their legal due diligence.

Additionally, and on behalf of the Seller, Redbrik requires the successful Buyer to enter into a Reservation Agreement and pay the Reservation Agreement Fee of £595 (including VAT). This includes payment for the Buyer Information Pack and all the searches (which a buyer typically purchases separately after the sale is agreed).

Upon receipt of the signed Reservation Agreement, payment of the Reservation Agreement Fee, completion of id and aml checks and the issuing of the Memorandum of Sale, the Seller will agree to take the Property off the market and market it as Sold Subject To Contract (sstc).

During the Reservation Agreement period, the Seller will reject all offers and not enter into another agreement with any other buyer. The reservation period is agreed upon at the time of sale but is usually between 60 and 120 days.

The Reservation Fee is non-refundable except where the Seller withdraws from the sale. A copy of the Reservation Agreement is available on request, and Redbrik advises potential buyers to seek legal advice before entering into the Reservation Agreement.
