Vendor Comments

It was the potential of the property as a whole, combined with the rural-feeling yet convenient location that initially attracted us to Moat Farm House and  I would say we have now more than realised that potential and created a really outstanding property. Our immediate surroundings are peaceful and very private, says Paul, but in ten minutes I can be in the city centre and if I need to travel further afield, within five minutes I can be on the M6; in terms of location it couldn’t get much better.
The main farmhouse was in quite a sorry state when we purchased it sixteen years ago and so we’ve greatly extended it, created a third floor in the roof space and generally renovated throughout. It’s now considerably bigger and looking really beautiful, but we’ve been careful to maintain all of the lovely period features, so it retains a great deal of character. Since renovating the house we’ve created a huge, bespoke kitchen which is a really impressive room, says Paul. It’s a very sociable space that flows directly into the dining room, so it’s ideal for entertaining. 
We have around half an acre of very private grounds and have created a patio seating area around the house itself as well as a separate decked area, and the rest of the space is mainly laid to lawn. When were out there it’s almost as if were in the middle of nowhere, it’s so picturesque. I love to come home, shut the gate and enjoy the peace and the wonderful feeling of seclusion. At the top of the garden we have what I call the man cave, says Paul. It’s a large building in which we’ve installed a bar area and seating, and it’s also where we have the pool table. We tend to use it for parties it keeps the mess out of the house and it opens onto a patio terrace so guests can spill out into the garden when the weather is warm. There’s so much that I think we’ll all miss about Moat Farm House - the children have grown up here, so well take with us some great memories; it’s just been a wonderful home for the past sixteen years.
