Description

Nestled within two and a half acres of beautifully landscaped gardens and mature woods, this historic farmhouse, Grange Farm, presents an exceptional opportunity for both investment and personal transformation. Originally constructed as a farmhouse, it has been thoughtfully reconstructed to combine traditional charm with modern amenities. The property is approached via an impressive driveway that leads to a striking stone exterior, complemented by ivy that enhances its character. Inside, the layout is functional yet elegant, featuring a welcoming entrance hall that opens into a spacious lounge adorned with a classic stone fireplace. A private study provides an ideal workspace with scenic views of the estate. The open-plan kitchen, breakfast room, and living area serve as the home’s focal point, designed for both casual family life and entertaining guests. This space can benefit from further customization to suit contemporary tastes or expand functionality. The ground floor also includes a formal dining room plus utility and cloakroom facilities. Upstairs, five well-sized bedrooms include an impressive master suite complete with dressing room, en suite bathroom, and sauna; however, there is potential for modernizing the bathrooms to enhance luxury. Outside of the main residence lies a sizable detached garage with an upper leisure area that serves as a versatile entertainment suite or could be transformed into an annex or home office — offering further income potential or living space. The extensive gardens and adjoining woodland provide not only privacy but also significant development potential. The layout allows for various possibilities such as equestrian facilities or self-sustained living projects (subject to planning permission). With its tranquil setting yet close proximity to Rotherham and Sheffield alongside major transport routes like the M1 and M18, Grange Farm is perfectly placed for those seeking both serenity and convenience. This property represents an unparalleled opportunity to acquire a stunning piece of Yorkshire real estate with abundant scope for renovation and investment.
