About Harroyd Farm
The property is believed to originally date back to the early 1800s as a double fronted farmhouse and barn. It is constructed in natural stone underneath a stone slate roof. Our clients purchased the property in 1997 and began a programme of renovation to the property before overhauling it once more circa 2020 which involved the redesign of the downstairs to create the impressive living / dining kitchen.

It occupies a pleasant slightly elevated position with access up a private driveway from Deanbrook Road which is owned by the neighbouring barn conversion. There are open fields to the front and rear with the property enjoying views from both sides. The views at the front are particularly pleasant and expansive.

The main day to day entrance to the property is through the entrance door which sits beneath an oak framed porch at the front of the building and leads into the spacious reception hall. This features wooden flooring, staircase to the first floor and a fireplace with log burning stove. To the left hand side of the hall is a good sized living room and to the other side steps lead down to the living kitchen.

There is also a generous utility / boot room located to the rear of the property with a rear entrance porch and downstairs wc adjoining.
