Property description
Description
Bleachfield House dates from 1748 and the cottage followed in 1800, both used in the linen industry. A bleach field was created in 1752 where linen cloth and thread were bleached. With the decline of the industry in the 19th century the properties were occupied by farm workers until the late 1950’s. This picture postcard property is in an idyllic rural location and has been sympathetically restored and offers modern living whilst retaining traditional features throughout including wooden beams, wood panelling, real wood flooring, stable style doors and deep display window sills. The properties are both finished to a high standard and are in walk-in condition. The double glazing units were replaced in both properties by the current owners. Both properties have their own separate boilers controlled by a Hive programmer and thermostat, utility supplies and mains water.
