West Side Farm is a distinctive stone-built farmhouse set on approximately 6.8 acres in the picturesque Manifold Valley, presenting significant renovation and investment opportunities. This substantial four-bedroom residence features an impressive three-bedroom converted barn currently functioning as a holiday let. The property boasts a range of traditional outbuildings that could be developed further, subject to appropriate consents, making it an ideal canvas for those looking to modernize and customize their living space according to personal preferences.
The farmhouse itself retains extensive accommodation across three floors, although it requires modernization to realize its full potential. The ground floor hosts an entrance hallway leading to essential living spaces including a farmhouse-style kitchen with an oil-fired Aga—an excellent foundation for a contemporary family hub—alongside a welcoming lounge with an exposed stone fireplace and adjoining orangery overlooking the gardens.
Upstairs, the first floor has room for three substantial double bedrooms and a family bathroom, complemented by additional space on the second floor, currently used as a home office plus another generous bedroom. While well-maintained, this home’s layout allows for reconfiguration and enhancement.
Externally, the approach includes a sweeping driveway through paddocks leading to ample parking, enhanced by gardens favoring privacy and expansive countryside views. The outbuildings provide versatile possibilities: from workshops to garden rooms or further conversion into living spaces can be envisioned here.
The surrounding five acres are split into four paddocks suited for equestrian use or smallholding pursuits. With immediate access to rich outdoor activities such as walking and cycling routes nearby, this property brings together rural charm with practical potential.
