House For Sale £995,000
A fabulous barn conversion which extends to approximately 2700 sqft and offers a rare opportunity to own a piece of history - one not to be missed!
Holly Barn offers a fabulous interior designed double barn conversion, wrapped around an ancient milestone, nestled on the riverbank. This most charming property provides flexible and spacious accommodation, extends to over 2700 sqft and is surrounded by beautiful, landscaped gardens. This unique property, which is thought to be the old Horsforth laundry, was transformed into a substantial and functional family home, meeting the requirements of modern day living, without compromising the character of the original building.
On approaching the property, the discerning purchaser is first drawn to a beautiful entrance which is set within dressed stone creating an outstanding first impression. A good-sized sitting room awaits through the main door which offers access to the principal accommodation to the ground floor, whilst providing access to the first-floor landing via a spiral staircase and offering a cosy area to relax and unwind.
Proceeding through the original full height barn door, access is gained to a truly elegant split level sitting room. Offering vaulted ceilings and exposed Queen truss rafters which still bare the original pulleys, this wonderful room further features an exposed stone fireplace with inset wood burning stove, whilst offering open views across the adjoining riverbank.
At the centre of this most individual home sits a spacious breakfast kitchen. Providing a wealth of fitted appliances, this wonderful room features a freestanding wood burning stove that sits proudly aside the original ‘Milestone’, indicating a ‘4.5 Mile’ distance to Leeds city centre. Further ground floor accommodation includes a useful utility room, a spacious guest bedroom which is serviced by its own en-suite shower room and a guest w.c.
From the living room, a staircase leads to the minstrels gallery landing which provides access to all the first-floor accommodation. The splendid master bedroom is serviced by an en-suite bathroom and separate dressing room. Further first floor accommodation includes two further generously proportioned bedrooms – one of which offers an en-suite bathroom and the other an en-suite shower room.
The grounds of this wonderful home are well enclosed and lie to the rear of the property. Access via a set of timber gates, accessed is to an extensive gravelled driveway which provides secure off-street parking for several vehicles.
The garden to the rear of the property have been lovingly attended and now provide exceptional family gardens. Offering a superb place for outdoor entertaining, whilst enjoying the beautiful and mature gardens beyond, this tranquil area allows this magnificent setting to be fully enjoyed.
