A Historic Gem In The Heart Of Redmire: A Magnificent 16th-Century Home

Welcome...
Lightfoot Hall is more than a dream for history enthusiasts; it’s a way of life for those who appreciate the blend of heritage, comfort, and community. From the moment you cross the gravelled driveway and approach the bespoke oak door, the scent of roses and the weight of history greet you, setting the tone for a lifestyle that’s both peaceful and deeply connected to its surroundings.

Come on in...
Open the bespoke Oak door and discover the magic of Lightfoot Hall. The living room is a masterclass in character and comfort. Imagine cosying up on autumn evenings by the magnificent inglenook fireplace, with unique pargeting plasterwork, its warmth enhanced by underfloor heating and the gentle glow of ambient lighting. Sunlight pours in through the bay window, creating the perfect spot for morning coffee or a quiet afternoon with a good book. The generous proportions and timeless finishes make this a gathering place for family and friends, where laughter and conversation flow as easily as the seasons change.

The kitchen, accessed through a historic oak archway, is the heart of day-to-day living. Whether you’re preparing a leisurely weekend breakfast with local produce or cooking up a feast while chatting with friends, the thoughtful design and beautiful views make every meal a pleasure. White cabinetry provides storage and workspace, with an electric oven and hob, plus an integrated dishwasher and space for a washing machine. The kitchen’s dual-aspect windows invite natural light and offer ever-changing garden vistas, plus a stunning mullioned window that adds a nod to the building's history and age.

Beautiful Bedrooms...
Upstairs, the tranquil bedrooms offer restful retreats after long countryside walks or evenings spent at the village pub. Wake to views across the gardens toward Penhill, the sound of birdsong, and the soft textures of original wooden floors and exposed beams. Each bedroom is large enough for a double bed and provides a space for relaxation, reflection, and restorative sleep, essential for embracing the slower, more mindful pace of country living.

The family bathroom, modernised for comfort, invites you to unwind after a day spent exploring village trails or tending your own garden. There is a bath with a shower over, a wash hand basin and a WC. Heated tiled flooring and a deep-set window with a mosaic sill add touches of luxury to daily routines.

Glorious Gardens...
Lightfoot Hall’s outdoor spaces invite you to live life outdoors as much as indoors. Start your mornings with a stroll across lush lawns or spend sunny afternoons tending vibrant flower beds, relaxing by the tranquil pond, where you can watch the dragonflies whilst enjoying a morning cup of tea, or hosting friends for alfresco meals on one of the two patios. The garden becomes a haven for nature lovers and those who value time spent in fresh air, whether gardening, reading, or simply soaking in the peace.

A ‘secret garden’ sits to the front, home to an abundant apple tree and vegetable beds, perfect for those seeking a self-sufficient lifestyle or wishing to share homegrown produce with neighbours. Harvest apples or rhubarb for crumbles, pies or the most amazing rhubarb gin. Practical features like the stone-built shed and ample gated parking make daily routines seamless, blending traditional charm with modern convenience.
