5 Bedroom Country House

West Close Farmhouse is a substantial former farmhouse which has been refurbished and maintained to exacting standards and benefits from having two successful holiday let cottages. The property has been creatively extended and offers spacious, comfortable accommodation which has also previously been run as a Bed and Breakfast. The property benefits from being fully double glazed, having a biomass heating system, solar panels and batteries.  

The property is entered through a useful lobby with space for jackets and boots which leads into a large and open plan kitchen diner with a polished tiled floor and under floor heating. The kitchen features a quality range of fitted wooden units which are complemented by granite worktops and a Belfast sink. There are integrated appliances including a fridge freezer, dishwasher and a Rangemaster cooker together with a central island. There is ample space for a family dining area which then opens into the conservatory from where the stunning views can be enjoyed with French doors out to a patio. 

There is a snug just off the kitchen which has a traditional feel with engineered oak floorboards, exposed beams and a multi fuel burning stove with a wooden mantle above. Steps up lead into the living room which has ceiling beams and engineered oak flooring with dual aspect windows making the room lovely and light. There is an impressive stone- crafted fireplace with a log burning stove set within. 

A door leads to the inner hallway with access to the front porch, a useful broom cupboard and an oak staircase, which leads up to the first floor. Completing the ground floor is a large dining room with a stone flagged floor and doors out to the front and rear of the property. There is also a cloakroom and a utility room. 

To the first floor there are three double bedrooms and a house bathroom. The main bedroom enjoys stunning views and has a dressing room and an ensuite bathroom with a WC, basin and a shower over the bath.  

There is an internal door which connects the property to a further two bedrooms which have previously been used as bed & Breakfast rooms. There are two double bedrooms with ensuite shower rooms, and an open plan room with a kitchenette, separate bathroom and a living area which has a sofa bed. The connecting door can be opened or removed if required to fully incorporate the additional rooms into the main house, or a Bed and Breakfast business could be reinstated. These rooms can also be accessed via an external stone staircase making them completely independent from the house if required. 

Externally, West Close Farmhouse is complemented by delightful south facing gardens with ample lawn, patio and a mix of traditional flower beds, fruit cages and borders. There is a traditional hay meadow with a range of different grasses and wildflowers which extends to 1.85 acre and extensive gravelled parking for several vehicles.
