Take a look inside this beautiful five-bedroom cottage in Sheffield that's a 'sunny and airy delight' – on the market for £800,000

A detached five-bedroom cottage in one of Sheffield’s most desirable areas is on the market with an asking price of £800,000.

Farm Cottage, on Townhead Road in Dore, dates from the 18th century and has three reception rooms and two bathrooms – it was enlarged in Victorian times and again in the 1970s.

The estate agent handling the sale, ELR, says: “The original cottage with its exposed beams and massive stone fireplace is a sunny and airy delight. Four more rooms were added in the Victorian era, and the 1970s addition, designed by the owner, a professor of architecture, adds dramatic space to the property, especially upstairs with open ceilings, beams and the whole space lighted by huge triangular windows at each end.

"There is also a beautiful, secluded garden and an integral garage. Altogether this provides an excellent range of versatile accommodation over two floors, particularly ideal for families.”
