Description
This charming period farmhouse, Lilleys Farm, is a rare renovation opportunity set within 1.75 acres of private grounds and enjoying far-reaching views towards Duncliffe Woods. The property, which has been in the same family for generations, features natural stone elevations, well-proportioned accommodation, and a range of outbuildings offering potential for extension and renovation. The main house has a dual-aspect sitting room with a Minster stone open fireplace, a family room, breakfast room, utility room, and three generous double bedrooms. The property is peacefully located in the rural hamlet of Moorside, just east of the vibrant village of Marnhull, and offers excellent access to walking routes, schools, and transport links. The property is not listed, allowing greater flexibility for future improvements, and the lapsed planning consent for extension highlights the scope to further enhance the property.
