HAVE you ever thought about having a historic home on a generous plot of land?
If so our Property of the Week in Chapeltown could be the one for you.
Chapel House Farm in Chapeltown, Turton, is on the market with Cardwells.
The vendors have reduced the price to £799,999 so you could be snapping up a bargain.
Parts of this grade two Listed Freehold stone residence are thought to date from as far back as around 1510.
The stunning farmhouse enjoys thick stone walls (likely coursed sandstone in part) with detailed stone quoins and slate roof.
Internally there are exposed beamed ceilings, flagged floors and the type of character and living history that is rarely found in properties presented to the open market for sale.
The local area is beautiful, with St Anne’s Church and grounds just the other side of High Street, while the stunning West Pennine Moors and The Wayoh, Entwistle and Jumbles reservoirs are nearby and ideal for exploring on foot.
There are superb sporting and recreational facilities within easy reach including Edgworth Cricket Club, Jumbles Sailing Club, Turton Golf Club and the Last Drop Village, as are popular restaurants such as The Chetham Arms, The Toby & The Retreat.
Turton High School, and Edgworth Primary School are within easy reach and there are bus services to Bolton School and Westholme School locally.
You will love this charming family home as you enjoy the enticing reception hallway, stunning kitchen complete with large Aga and granite central island. The kitchen opens up in the family room which in turn opens out onto the rear garden.
The lounge is thought to be one of the oldest parts of the property and there are crooked beams and a multi fuel stove and gorgeous dining room.
Those wanting to work from home can do so in a separate study.
The landing has exposed stonework, and the upstairs boasts a master bedroom with contemporary three piece en suite shower room and two additional double bedrooms and a beautiful family bathroom.
Outside the home, there is a detached double garage and a sweeping private driveway which can provide off road car parking for a number of vehicles.
The formal rear gardens have been superbly maintained, are private and offer enclosed lawns perfect for children to play, while there are superb terraces and patios ideal for entertaining.
