This 'outstanding' and historic six-bedroom farmhouse in Sheffield is on the market for £1.3 million

A six-bedroom farmhouse with eight acres of land, a separate annexe and a range of outbuildings is up for sale in the Sheffield countryside.

Platts Farm, at Ughill close to the Peak District boundary, is believed to date back to 1347 and has been home to historical figures including Bess of Hardwick, a close friend of Elizabeth I.

It was used as an alehouse during the 17th century, before being converted to a farm with two adjoining cottages in the 19th century.

The property has since been rebuilt and refurbished by the current owners, while retaining a host of period features.

The sale is being handled by Blenheim Park Estates and the home is listed on Zoopla. Click here for more information.
