A substantial Victorian detached farmhouse conversion offering 2,341 sq ft of living space arranged over two floors. Original period features — stonework, fireplaces and Victorian tiled flooring — sit alongside contemporary improvements such as quartz worktops, integrated appliances and bi-folding doors to a large patio and garden. The layout suits family life: two reception rooms, a long kitchen/diner, utility room, cloakroom and four well-proportioned bedrooms, two with en suites.
Practical benefits include garage plus driveway parking, double glazing fitted post-2002, mains gas central heating and ultrafast broadband. The large, level rear garden with mature evergreens and a generous patio is arranged for easy maintenance and outside entertaining. The property is freehold and located in a very affluent, white suburban area with good local schools and transport links.
Buyers should note material considerations: the house lies in a historic coal mining area — a mining report is recommended — and there are historic restrictive covenants attached. The original granite walls are assumed to be uninsulated, which could affect energy performance and future insulation costs. Council tax is in band G, so running costs will be relatively high.
Overall this is a characterful, spacious family home that blends period charm with modern fittings. It will suit buyers seeking generous indoor/outdoor space and good connectivity, while those sensitive to potential remediation costs (mining report, wall insulation) should factor these into their plans.
