Once an agricultural barn, The Fold is today a beautiful – and thoroughly modern – family home thanks, in part at least, to a recent programme of redecoration.

Its ground floor accommodation comprises an entrance hall with a small seating area under the staircase, a cloakroom and the spacious light-filled breakfast kitchen with modern fitted units, exposed wood ceiling beams, integrated appliances including a new Miele dishwasher and a central island which doubles as a breakfast bar for informal meals.

Off the kitchen is both a fully fitted utility room and a useful pantry.

Stretching right across the rear of the house is the spacious living room, with a focal point log-burning stove set into a chimney breast and two sets of French doors opening into the rear garden.

These, and a further floor-to-ceiling window, ensure that natural light floods into the room.

Upstairs are a stylish family bathroom and three bedrooms, all with exposed beams and trusses plus Velux windows, and one with an en-suite shower room.

Two of the three bedrooms enjoy beautiful views over open countryside to the rear.

And so to the gardens, a real highlight of the property.

To the front of the house is a gravelled driveway and parking area, plus a double garage, while the rear garden is a real gem that has been lovingly and meticulously maintained.

It is home to a paved patio perfect for alfresco dining and a lush lawn bordered by planted beds and mature trees.

There is also a recently purchased greenhouse and, of course, the beautiful view over the open countryside beyond.

The Fold is located in West Layton, between Barnard Castle and Richmond and roughly a mile-and-a-half from Mainsgill Farmshop.
