AN IMPRESSIVE part-Georgian, part-Tudor country home in north Lancashire is on the market for £1.75 million.
Buckstone House is Grade II listed and set in seven acres of gardens and land at Tewitfield, near Carnforth.
The agents, Savills, describe the location as "remote and private" and say the house offers nine bedrooms, four reception rooms, five bathrooms, an annexe cottage, stables, garages and outbuildings.
The grounds include about four acres of beautifully manicured gardens, an orchard and a rose garden with pathways throughout leading to a small woodland with treehouse and zipwire. There are also around three acres of grazing land.
Buckstone House was completely modernised 10 years ago. Tastefully decorated throughout, it still has many original features dating as far back as 1550.
An imposing main door leads to an impressive entrance hallway, sitting room, bright and light drawing room with original fireplace and windows overlooking the gardens, utility room, cloakroom, larder, kitchen/family room and dining room.
The first floor's five bedrooms include a master suite with a dressing room, and there is also a family bathroom and generous store room.
There are four more bedrooms on the second floor, plus a bathroom, shower room and storage room.
The annexe cottage is currently used for office space but would also be ideal for extended family or staff, say the agents.
