Approached via a private road which meanders to electronically operated timber gates opening to a pebbled driveway which leads to the Bradshaw Farm and offers parking for numerous vehicles and has a full turning circle to the front around a raised bed with mature planting. From here, a slate-tiled canopy-porch shelters the solid timber door to the entrance hall with stone flagged flooring and a slim window to the front. An oak timber staircase rises to the first-floor galleried landing, there are exposed timber beams and timber doors open to each of the rooms.

The triple aspect principal lounge has windows to the front and rear plus French doors each having astounding, far-reaching rural aspects whilst the brick-built, herringbone-pattern fireplace with timber mantle and log burning stove offers a further focal point to this comfortably spacious room. The good-sized formal dining room has further exposed beams and a brick fireplace with stone hearth and log burning and a further door from here gives way to the breakfast kitchen.

With magnificent views from the picture window, the breakfast kitchen is fitted with a superb range of Laurel Farm cabinets, drawers and pantry cupboards having granite works-tops inset with a double Belfast sink unit and mixer tap plus a separate Zip boiling water tap. A Culshaw Bell island unit and breakfast bar is centrally positioned and the larder cupboard offers space and plumbing for an American-style fridge freezer and also has space to house kitchen appliances.

Cooking facilities are provided by an electric Aga and integrated appliances include the dishwasher and microwave. The stone flagged floor abuts the under-floor heated oak flooring of the family room with bi-folding windows to the front and windows to the south and west whilst a splendid, contemporary log burning stove sits juxta-position to the traditional theme of the property. From the kitchen, French windows open to a paved, west-facing patio area offering a superb entertaining space with glazed sun room and a perimeter shale path wraps around the exterior of the property.

From the inner hall, the boot room, fitted with storage cupboards and hanging space for coats, has a glazed oak door to the rear offering practical separate entrance. The flagged flooring continues into the hallway and also the cloakroom with vanity basin and low flush WC and motion sensor lighting.

Also from the inner hall, the utility room has kitchen complementary Laurel Farm cabinets with marbled granite counters, an inset Belfast sink unit, a secondary electric double oven and electric hob and houses a full-size freezer and stacked washing machine/tumble dryer.

To the rear is a charming snug, warmed by tall column radiators and having dual aspect windows to the sides and patio doors overlooking the garden.

Gardens

From the electric gates, the shale driveway forks to the left to reach the residence frontage and the formal lawn gardens, with perimeter lighting, continue to stretch away towards the front boundary, interrupted by mature planting and brick-built walls which offer privacy and protection from the elements.

From the driveway and turning right are the stables, tack room and a storage barn with concrete base, power and light, water and drainage. There is also additional parking and storage plus an independently alarmed detached double garage with electric up-and-over doors to front, a personal side door, an armoured power point and log store.

The rear lawn gardens are bordered by shrub planting which extends to the full reach of the boundary line on varying levels. Stone steps rise to the rear patio with a low-level stone-built wall to the boundary hedge line. Set on this elevated area to take full advantage of the landscape is the uPVC detached glazed sunroom before the garden sweeps onwards and downwards, towards an enclosed, secluded sunken folly with power and lighting and savouring unrivalled panoramic views- creating an idyllic spot to relax.
