Warsop Cottage Farm 

Tucked away at the end of Carter Lane, discover the delights of Warsop Cottage Farm; a hidden gem steeped in history. 

Breathtaking arrival 

Exuding Georgian grandeur upon arrival, originally built in the 1680s and nestled on an expansive 5.8-acre plot, Warsop Cottage Farm is enveloped in breathtaking countryside views. Renovated and extended over the years (with a major update in 2008) spacious rooms and modern upgrades blend with homely, historic charm and contemporary comfort.  

Pull up along the driveway where there is ample parking for around ten cars, before making your way indoors via double doors opening into the light-filled garden room, where slate tiling extends underfoot.  

Practical places 

Perfect for returning indoors from country walks or a spot of gardening, the garden room opens into a utility, comprehensively furnished with wooden cabinetry affording ample storage. Alongside a sink, there is space for a freestanding fridge freezer and plumbing for a washer and dryer. A practical entrance point for those with canine companions, there is also a handy shower room with wash basin and WC accessed from here. 

Directly ahead from the garden room, double doors open into the warmth and welcome of the traditional farmhouse kitchen, where slate flooring continues through and appliances include a freestanding Range-style cooker, Bosch fridge and dishwasher.  

Savour the moment 

Bespoke fitted solid wood cabinetry evokes the rural surroundings, timelessly elegant and offering abundant storage for all your utensils and essentials. Granite worktops gleam beneath the natural light flowing in through the windows, overlooking the glorious garden. Warmth emanates from the log-burning stove, nestled within an arched recess. 

A network of overhead beams embraces the heritage of the home in the sitting room next door, where a multi-fuel stove crackles away within a stone surround, filling the room with toasty cheer. Wooden flooring flows out underfoot, with French doors offering instant access to the garden. 

Entertain and unwind 

Beyond the sitting room, an inner hallway leads to the dining room, where treacle toned beams, and deep windowsills portray the Georgian history of Warsop Cottage Farm. Wine and dine with family and friends in front of the comforting glow of the multi fuel stove. 

For special occasions, family celebrations or simply enjoying the glorious gardens whatever the weather, opening up from the dining room, the large conservatory is the ultimate space for entertaining. 

A cosy snug with doors opening to the patio also awaits off the inner hallway, again bedecked in robust beams. Also accessible from the sitting room, Warsop Cottage Farm is brimming with spaces to mingle and flow, as well as peaceful pockets for moments of quiet contemplation. 

Soak and sleep 

Ascend the stairs to the first floor, where the first of six bountiful bedrooms awaits on the right. Storage can be found in the built-in wardrobe, with plenty of space for a dressing table and chests of drawers. Indulge in a restorative soak in the large tub in the ensuite bathroom. 

Turning left from the top of the stairs, admire the sunset and sunrise from the second of the double bedrooms, before continuing along the landing, where a luxuriously appointed family bathroom can be found, furnished with shower containing feature beams and roll top bath, set upon a plinth inviting you to take in the far-reaching vistas whilst you bathe. 

Continue along the landing, passing the storage room with water tanks, to reach the principal bedroom – part of a modern extension. A capacious space, step into the walk-in wardrobe to discover all-season storage within. Spacious and drenched in light, courtesy of large windows to two sides, wake up to spectacular views out over the garden and fields, and breathe in the crisp countryside air from the Juliette balcony. 

Refreshment awaits in the ensuite shower room, also furnished with twin wash basins, WC and heated towel radiator. 

Retracing your steps along the landing, make your way up a second staircase to reach the upper floor, opened up into the loft space and converted by the current owners to create an additional suite of rooms. 

Light flourishes in through dormer windows, flooding the landing, and cosy reading nook, with sunlight. 

High ceilings and quirky floors feature in the three enormous bedrooms, one of which features exposed stone and a shower room ensuite. Windows to each of the bedrooms capture elevated views out over the garden, ponds and farmland. There is also a quaint crafting room which could also serve as a study, whilst a large family bathroom with big bath serves the bedrooms. 

Garden delights 

Set amidst 5.8 idyllic acres, step outside and experience the restorative pleasure of the gardens at Warsop Cottage Farm. South-facing, lush lawns stretch out, perfect for leisurely strolls, children’s games, or simply soaking in the serene privacy of this tucked-away rural retreat.  

A patio terrace provides a stunning space for alfresco dining and entertaining, while the home’s mature landscaping includes two ponds and a miniature orchard of fruit trees featuring apple, pear, cherry and nectarine, as well as damsons woven into the hedgerows.  

For equestrian enthusiasts, there is a former manège, with post-and-rail fencing and a stable block - complete with three stables, and a tack room previously with planning permission for conversion into a two-story annexe - offering endless potential. There is also a handy outside WC ideal for children out at play.
