Description
Alum Scar Fold is a rare and unique detached farmhouse with attached barn, dating back to 1731. The property is set in a beautifully unspoilt rural setting and offers generous family accommodation with the scope to create something truly special. The formal gardens are a particular delight, with charming aspects to both front and rear, and two separate driveways leading to good-sized garages. The property has a rich history, having once been part of the Woodfold Hall estate and owned by Henry Sudell, one of Blackburn's most notable historical figures. The interior features a welcoming reception hallway, open fireplaces, and a range of original features, including a stone recess and inglenook stone surround. The property also boasts a private theatre in the attached barn, complete with seating for up to 42 guests, a performance stage, and a fully equipped theatre space. The grounds are equally impressive, with open aspects to both front and rear, a greenhouse, raised beds, and a large wildlife pond with water feature.
