Breckon Hill, Lowgate

This grade II listed farmhouse offers a tasteful mix of period features and modern fittings throughout, creating a desirable and conveniently located family home. The house is approached by a long sweeping driveway with an extensive gravel parking area to the front.

A spacious and welcoming reception hall provides access to the main reception rooms. The reception hall, drawing room and sitting room all have attractive fireplaces with wood burning stoves. All of the rooms throughout the house are beautifully decorated in a carefully curated mix of paint colours, wallpaper and wood-panelling.

The luxurious open-plan kitchen and dining room features vaulted ceilings, skylights and exposed beams. It’s an impressive space with excellent views across the rolling fields. Flooded with natural light, there are modern kitchen units with a stylish stone worktop, a large breakfast bar island plus an electric five-oven Aga. This is a modern and luxurious country kitchen at the heart of the house.

The kitchen flows naturally into the cosy, south-facing sitting room. The dual-aspect drawing room has wonderful views over the gardens and fields. The ground floor also benefits from a cloakroom, study (with generous built-in storage) and a large, well equipped utility room for country living.

The first floor has four well proportioned double bedrooms, two of which benefit from ensuite shower rooms. There is a separate family bathroom with a free-standing bath plus a walk-in shower.

Exiting the utility room to the rear of the house there is a large sandstone paved patio, dog enclosure and a gate which leads to an extensive walled garden with a mix of flower beds, lawn and mature trees. There is a modern detached garage providing secure parking and further storage. The house is set in approximately three acres of grounds, two acres of which are a field suitable for grazing. 

Breckon Hill benefits from both a gas combi-boiler as well as a biomass boiler - these can be used interchangeably. The property's services include superfast fibre broadband, mains electricity, water and gas. Drainage leads into a private septic tank.
