Bumby Hall is a delightful period property with wonderful features including working fireplaces, exposed timbers, and hand painted décor. Formerly three cottages, the property offers a unique layout with excellent accommodation featuring three staircases and with potential to further enhance made viable as the house does not have listed status. The ground floor is accessed via a side door into an entrance area and cloakroom. From here a door leads through to a living room with working fireplace that creates a natural divide with the snug area. A door from the living room leads into a third reception room, ideal as an office or ground floor bedroom. Opposite the snug is the dining room where the walls are adorned with hand painted motifs and features a fireplace and access into a workshop. The kitchen is situated at the rear of the property and offers views of the garden. There is scope to extend the kitchen into the workshop to create a kitchen diner (subject to planning approval). As previously mentioned, there are three staircases leading to the first floor with two having direct access to the landing. On the first floor is a wonderful principal bedroom with exposed timbers. Opposite, is bedroom five which has its own access from the third staircase and would make a lovely dressing room. There are three remaining bedrooms on the first floor, all with fitted storage and these are served by a recently modernised family bathroom.
The house sits just off Woodhouse Lane and offers a lovely half an acre plot with established hedging forming a secure boundary. There is a driveway to the front of the house and a double garage. Much of the plot is to the rear of the property and features a generous lawn area, flower beds and a natural pond. The property is surrounded by open farmland and enjoys views to the rear and front.
