Turton historic Grade II listed farmhouse on sale in village

The historic farmhouse, situated in one of the most picturesque villages in the region has just come on to the market.

Priced at £899,950, Chapel House Farm, Turton, is home to three bedrooms, two bathrooms and three reception rooms.

The freehold residence, which is thought to date from as far back as around 1510, is nestled in a plot of around one third of an acre and is located at the heart of the village of Chapeltown.

The stunning farmhouse has thick stone walls, likely coursed sandstone in part, with detailed stone quoins and a slate roof.

Inside 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 kitchen blends the modern and the traditional, with a large Aga and granite central island with the kitchen then opening 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, with crooked beams and a multi-fuel stove, and a dining room.
