Broomhill House Farm is an exceptional six-bedroom detached farmhouse conversion set within approximately 10 acres of grounds, offering a rare combination of heritage character and contemporary design. The property features a show-stopping double‑height glass atrium linking the converted barn and main house, expansive open-plan living, generous reception rooms and a double garage with EV charging. Eco-conscious buyers will appreciate the biomass heating with nine years remaining on the RHI scheme and a heat-recovery system, plus underfloor heating throughout.
The layout suits a family seeking space and flexibility: six large double bedrooms, multiple reception rooms including a cinema room, home office, and an annexe wing with separate entrance providing multigenerational or guest accommodation potential. Landscaped gardens, patios, an oak-framed barbecue hut and an AstroTurf play area extend living outdoors across a huge plot with far-reaching countryside views. The design has been recognised at the North West LABC awards for best conversion.
Important practical points are clear and factual: broadband speeds are very slow in this location and mobile signal is only average, which may affect remote working or streaming without a dedicated solution. Council tax is described as very expensive; prospective buyers should check current charges and running costs. The house sits in an established farming neighbourhood and benefits from privacy at the end of a long tree-lined driveway, but it is rural — local services are limited and a car is essential for everyday travel.
Overall, this home will appeal to families or couples seeking a prestigious, low‑maintenance finished home with strong eco credentials, considerable outdoor space, and flexible accommodation. It is particularly attractive to those prioritising privacy, countryside lifestyle and entertaining, while buyers sensitive to connectivity or ongoing tax costs should factor these elements into their decision.
