Formerly part of the Wentworth Estate, built approximately 200 years ago, surrounded by beautiful open countryside resulting in the most idyllic of external lifestyles whilst being only a short walk from the gardens of Wentworth Castle. A delightful home presenting a wealth of charm and character, the generous living kitchen forming the hub of the home and opening directly on to a privately enclosed garden. The spacious lounge displays original exposed timbers and commands stunning views over surrounding countryside. Whilst immediately rural, local services are in abundance and the M1 motorway can be reached within a 5-minute drive.
Ground Floor
A Part glazed entrance door opens to the reception hall which provides an impressive introduction to the property. From the hallway a staircase rises to first floor level, there is a cupboard housing the central heating boiler and access is given to the ground floor bedrooms and living kitchen.

This room has windows to two aspects whilst French doors open onto an enclosed decked seating area. The kitchen area is presented with a traditionally styled range of fitted furniture with complementary granite work surfaces and an instant hot / chilled tap and a full complement of appliances. An island / workstation has useful drawers and shelving beneath.

There are two ground floor bedrooms; the front boasting exposed timbers and brickwork whilst two windows overlook the garden.
