THE FOLD
Situated in a most picturesque part of Acomb we are pleased to offer this substantial stone and slate built Grade II Listed home. The property itself comprises of an original two storey cottage, which has been fully renovated and then extended by the conversion, some 15 years ago, of substantial barns and outbuildings. The property is arranged around a central courtyard which provides patios and parking and is set in large gardens. The property is laid out in such a way that it offers versatility and comprises; entrance hall, cloakroom with separate utility, a fabulous dining kitchen with open pitched ceiling and exposed beams, conservatory, delightful garden room which overlooks the central courtyard and the gardens. A large study/family room and a spacious living room with a focal point being a real-flame gas fired stove. The property as a whole comprises five bedrooms, but offers versatility by being able to create a separate cottage for dependant relatives or holiday use. The cottage itself has a further spacious living room with a stone fireplace, separate dining room, utility and fully fitted kitchen. In additional however there is a separate detached annex which is currently used as a music studio and provides a spacious room, separate bathroom, kitchen and store room. This offers tremendous potential to be used for home offices or a self contained annex. Externally there is ample private parking, a large timber storage shed and mature gardens. All properties have gas fired central heating and are double glazed. Only an internal inspection will truly reveal the nature of this accommodation and we would strongly recommend a viewing.
