5 Bed Detached House For Sale Sheffield, S35

Park House is uniquely situated within the parkland of the historic Wortley Hall and occupies a sizeable plot of approximately 1.5 acres in an idyllic country setting. The main house has four bedrooms and provides spacious family accommodation. There is also a one bedroomed self-contained cottage that is ideal for relatives and has scope to create further living space.

This wonderful home is approached by a private lane and throughout the property, the surrounding far-reaching views can be enjoyed. The south-facing gardens contain a large lawn, two stone seating areas and a variety of mature trees. There is also the benefit of a paddock and outbuilding, which includes two garages, a garden store and four stables.
