Believed to date back to 1895, Sedgwick House is an impressive double-fronted stone-built Victorian home that retains much of its original architectural appeal while offering spacious accommodation perfectly suited to modern family living.

Briefly, its accommodation comprises an entrance hall off which, to the front of the house, is a formal living room with picture rails, alcove detailing, a bay window and an open fire with an original fireplace (sourced from another property but perfectly complementing the character of the home).

Across the hall is the dining room, also with a bay window and a fireplace housing a large multi-fuel log-burning stove.

This is open-plan to the kitchen which is fitted with a range of units complemented by granite effect worktops and with integrated appliances including a Rangemaster oven and dishwasher.

The kitchen, garden room and utility area were substantially enlarged as part of a rear extension completed in 2009, creating a generous and practical living space that is at the heart of family life.

The garden room, which enjoys views over the rear garden, benefits from a log-burning stove set in a brick surround and has bifold doors that open onto a patio.

To the rear of the property is a useful utility/boot room with direct access to the rear garden and a rear hallway that’s home to an understairs WC and further storage.

On the first floor are the family bathroom with a freestanding bath, plus three double bedrooms, while upstairs again are three further rooms currently used as a gym, an office/bedroom and a bedroom.

Sedgwick House has a gravelled parking area to the front and generous gardens to the rear featuring a raised lawn, a patio seating area, a pond stocked with goldfish and carp, planted beds with vegetables and flowers and a range of useful stone outbuildings, including a former coal shed.
