Period property with 1.19 acres of land situated in the sought-after village of Barnby
This charming period property is believed to date back to the early 1600s and enjoys a very quiet and pleasant semi-rural setting in the village of Barnby. The house retains a wealth of character including exposed wood beams, intricate cornicing, deep bay windows, high ceilings and original fireplaces. The property has been well maintained by the vendor though would benefit from a full renovation to bring it up to its full potential affording a wonderful opportunity for the new owner to personalise to their own personal tastes. The house is set within about one acre of land, including extensive gardens and off-street parking.
The accommodation currently extends to over 2700 sq ft across two floors with good scope to extend if desired (subject to obtaining the necessary consents). The ground floor is accessed via a welcoming entrance hall leading through to a spacious sitting room with large bay window and doors out to a Veranda with ample space for outdoor seating. There is also a study, formal dining room and the fully fitted kitchen complete with AGA cooker and adjacent pantry and utility room. On the first floor is the principal bedroom which benefits from fitted wardrobes, three additional double bedrooms with built-in storage, a smaller bedroom with good potential to be utilised as a home office or additional study if desired plus a family bathroom.
Barnby Grange sits in a wonderful plot surrounded by open countryside and is set back from the road behind a private gravel driveway with space for a number of vehicles. The grounds are a fantastic highlight and feature expansive level lawns with attractive borders and shrubs and a variety of bedding plants, well enclosed by tall established trees and hedges affording an excellent degree of seclusion. There are also various outbuildings comprising a stable, workshop, storage space and greenhouse which offer great potential for conversion. There is also a separate access via Dark Lane with a gate.
