Property description

Wood Close Farm is a delightful period residence dating from the 1700s and built of distinctive mellow ironstone with a slate roof. The property sits in the heart of the peaceful hamlet of Wardley, with a pretty gabled frontage that overlooks the lane whilst the southern façade faces out over the surrounding countryside and there are captivating country views throughout both the house and garden. The house retains much of its historic charm with internal features such as original wood lintels and beams, and open fireplaces, whilst the décor enhances the period style with natural stone tiled flooring and pitch-pine doors. An extension was added around twelve years ago, complementing the original house and creating light-filled living spaces with doors to the garden. The stunning master Bedroom has a picture window which makes the most of the view and other recent updates include contemporary fittings in the sleek bathrooms and a stylish Kitchen. Combining rural peace and seclusion with easy access to local amenities, Wood Close Farm is a charming and practical family home with captivating views.
