A substantial traditional stone farmhouse set on around four acres, Harwood Edge Barn combines generous family accommodation with genuine rural privacy. The heart of the home is a large country-style kitchen/dining room and an extended sun room that fills the living space with daylight and countryside views. Mature front and rear gardens, a greenhouse, vegetable plot, two stables, tack room and outbuildings make this a strong choice for equestrian or gardening enthusiasts.
Accommodation spans two main floors plus two attic rooms, giving flexibility for bedrooms, home office or occasional guest use. Principal rooms retain period character — exposed beams, stone mullioned windows and a stone fireplace — while modern comfort is provided by an air-source heat pump, underfloor heating and radiators. There is ample off-road parking for up to six vehicles and a large plot that will appeal to anyone wanting space and privacy.
Buyers should note a few practical points: the property has a single family bathroom, an EPC rating of D, and very slow broadband speeds which may affect home-working. Council Tax is band F and running costs should be considered. The house is presented in good condition but the size and period nature mean ongoing maintenance and potential updating in places.
Overall this farmhouse suits a growing family or hobby equestrian seeking established rural surroundings within reach of local amenities. It offers character, land and useful outbuildings, balanced by realistic running-cost and connectivity considerations.
