Sheffield homes: Superb £1.5m country residence with leisure complex for sale just 30 minutes away from city

Offers in the region of £1.5 million are being invited for Freshfields on Carlton Road, Bawtry, by estate agents Fine & Country.

Occupying an exclusive position in open countryside, the sprawling property sits in grounds that span in excess of four acres. It incorporates a swimming pool, spa, leisure complex and wellness centre, complete with hot tub, sauna and newly-constructed gym.

There are no fewer than seven bedrooms and five bathrooms, as well as expansive receptions rooms, a cinema room and a games room. At the heart of this special family home is an open-plan breakfast kitchen.

Freshfields has huge potential. In addition to the substantial main house, there is a separate annexe. It is currently being used as a business base but could easily be transformed into living accommodation because it comprises a spacious lounge, kitchen, bedroom, dressing room and bathroom.

Outside, there are a range of other outbuildings, stores and two separate stables to suit people with an interest in equestrian sports.

Formal gardens wrap themselves around the property, and a fantastic outdoor kitchen and decked areas give a number of dining and entertainment options. Next to the gardens is a large paddock, which has separate access but is still part of the grounds of the main residence.
