House For Sale £550,000
Manor Farm House is a substantial Carrstone and brick property of over 2900sq ft, located in the popular village of North Wootton. It sits in one of the village’s prime positions alongside the Village Green. The extensive house comprises one end of the Victorian Manor House (from which it was divided in the late 1990’s) and an adjoining barn conversion which originally contained the hayloft, carriage house and stables. It is thought that some of the stone in its construction came from the Old Priory. Also attached, at right angles to the house, is a large workshop/office, offering scope for multi-generational living. The entrance to the front of the house is within a walled parking area approached via a broad gravelled driveway which borders the office building and leads to a double area mature walled garden with gated access to the rear of the house and to a spacious detached garage at the rear.
The property provides flexible accommodation comprising large kitchen/breakfast room with utility area (giving access to the walled garden) and walk-in pantry; good sized entrance hall with stairs to the first floor; snug; dining room; sitting room with double aspect wood burner and feature oak wooden staircase to the galleried landing; cloakroom and rear porch on the ground floor. Upstairs is a galleried landing leading to study area/4th bedroom; 3rd bedroom with balcony overlooking the garden; family bathroom; bedroom 2 and en-suite master bedroom. The property offers an excellent opportunity for redesign and renovation and might also be suitable for conversion into a number of units dependent on planning permission. The large workshop/office incorporates a small kitchenette and w/c with French doors to one area of the walled garden.
Manor Farm House is being offered for sale with no onward chain.
