About this property


Approached via a winding, wildflower-lined lane beside a pond shaded by mature weeping willows, Rose Farm offers an immediate sense of escape, framed by open skies and surrounding fields.

A gated driveway provides generous parking and access to a detached triple garage with storage room and an upstairs den, offering excellent potential for use as a home gym or annexe.

Country character

Believed to date back to the mid-17th century, Rose Farm is a rare and much-loved country home, having been occupied by only three families in the last 50 years. Rich in character, features include exposed beams, stonework and inglenook fireplaces. The inviting sitting room enjoys garden views, while the dining room showcases original plank flooring, a log-burning stove and window seating overlooking the landscaped grounds. A separate lounge, centred around an open fire, provides a wonderful space for gatherings, with a naturally zoned area ideal for reading or music, while a peaceful study sits quietly to the rear.

Wine and dine

The vaulted kitchen-dining room, added in 2007, combines contemporary comfort with traditional charm, featuring slate flooring with underfloor heating, wooden cabinetry, a four-oven Aga and Velux windows drawing light down from the high ceiling. French doors open onto the garden for easy alfresco dining, with a built-in wine fridge and a second staircase leading to the first floor.

And so to bed...

Upstairs, the master bedroom is light and spacious, with exposed beams, stone mullion windows framing countryside views, built-in wardrobes and a generous Jack-and-Jill ensuite with twin basins and a freestanding bath. Three further bedrooms retain individual character with beams, built-in storage and garden or field views, one with its own shower room, while a bright family bathroom installed in 2011 completes the first-floor.

Out and about

The landscaped gardens, created in 2010, form a tranquil outdoor retreat, with manicured lawns, box hedging, colourful borders, patio seating and a pergola, alive with birdsong. Positioned on the edge of Walton village, Rose Farm enjoys a peaceful yet connected setting, close to countryside walks, well-regarded schools, local pubs, Wakefield amenities and excellent transport links.

A home with endless character, embraced by nature, and with the comfort of modern convenience, Rose Farm is a home ready to evolve and adapt to your needs.
