Description
Manor Farm is a most attractive Grade II listed period property originally of
timber frame construction and dating from the 17th century with later
alterations in the 19th century when it was faced in red brick.
The current owners have maintained and improved the property in their tenure
and the centerpiece is the stunning country kitchen complete with central
island unit fitted by local firm Baker and Burrage. A flexible array of ground
floor reception rooms allow for superb opportunities to work from home, enjoy
the cosy reception spaces with inset wood burners, or to entertain friends and
family in the kitchen. There are five bedrooms and two bathrooms over the
first and second floors providing ample accommodation and should a buyer
require multi - generational living, an annexe with separate access allows for
an ideal self - contained space.
Outside
The house is approached through a five bar gate leading to a large gravelled
drive with ample turning and parking for numerous vehicles as well as where
the garaging, barn and annexe are situated.
The rear gardens enjoy superb privacy and offer various areas to enjoy such as
the generously proportioned patio terrace, perfect for entertaining, a large
pond which the owners have maintained to provide an excellent habitat for
local wildlife and wooded area which borders the River Tas providing a serene
setting to enjoy the aspect back up to the house.
The large barn provides wonderful storage or if a buyer was to desire and
subject to necessary permissions, could create further parking for classic
cars or perhaps a gym.
