Available on the open market for only the second time, is this stunning former school house, which has been lovingly restored and remodelled by the current owners. Sympathetically modernised whilst retaining many of the original features, the generously proportioned, stone-built character property sits on a plot of circa 1.5 acres with a rewilded wooded area, stream and natural spring. This really is your own slice of nature on your doorstep. The property itself briefly comprises of; living room with wood burning stove, dining room with wood burning stove, family kitchen, utility room, library, office, house bathroom, four double bedrooms, master en-suite, and separate guest house forming the fifth bedroom with its own WC. Externally, in addition to the wooded area there is a large south-facing lawned garden and patio area which is ideal for the family, extensive off-street parking on a gated driveway equipped with an electric car charger, and a 36ft concrete hardstanding that could form the base for a number of development ideas, subject to planning. The village of East Hardwick has a lovely family and community feel with plenty of opportunities to get involved in what’s going on, and the larger village of Ackworth, with its fantastic pubs and restaurants, is close by. National road commuter links are excellent with the A1 and M62 being five and ten minutes away in the car respectively. This is a once in a lifetime opportunity.

The possibilities are endless.
External – The property sits in extensive grounds of circa 1.5 acres. The majority of the plot is allocated to woodland, attracts plenty of wildlife, is a real private slice of nature, and contains several young apple trees which bear fruit ideal for home cooking or cider pressing. The plot has a natural spring and a stream running through it with bridges over the stream. In addition to the woodland there is around 2500sqft of spacious lawned area and 285 sqft of south facing patio area for the family to enjoy. A wooden garden shed provides ample dry storage for items such as tools and gardening equipment. To the side of the property there is also a 36ft concrete base from a former outbuilding. This is already set up with its own power feed and could become the footings for a great garden project subject to the correct planning. A gated driveway provides extensive off street parking which leads to the house and a 7kW electric car charging point.
