A delightful unspoilt farmhouse dating back some 250 years, steeped in history and character.  Set in approx. 20 acres of woodland and grassland, the property also includes a stone barn which has been largely restored to create a studio or workshop but offers scope for other usage.  The property lies a long way from the road in a private and peaceful location with woodland walks from the doorstep.  Whilst it needs some attention, the house has loads of charm and lots of room.  No onward chain.

EXTERNALLY 

The property is approached via a long track from a minor road.  The track leads to the front of the house, where there is plenty of space to park and turn. 

To the rear of the property is a large garden area laid to lawn.  To the front is another area of garden and beyond / adjacent to this are two further paddocks edged by mature hedges with scope for grazing and / or to make a large, sheltered, vegetable garden. 

The Buildings 

Across the track from the house lie a renovated STONE BARN and a dilapidated stone barn which could be rebuilt if desired.  The main barn measures approx. 12.9m x 4.9m (42’ x 16’).  This has been left as a single large room.  This building would make an excellent studio, gym, music room etc. or could, with the necessary consent become further accommodation.

 

    

The Land 

To the side of the house and running around the rear of the back garden is a large sloping paddock which is currently home to pigs, although this could be returned to grass. 

Below the house are other enclosures of rough pasture and a small orchard. 

In all there are 8 acres of gardens and rough pasture land.  The remaining 12 acres are semi-ancient mixed deciduous woodland which runs down a steep valley side to a small river at the bottom which forms the boundary.  There are paths which give access to the woodland and from the property there are extensive good walks / rides through adjoining woodland.  The woodland is of course, a valuable source of fuel.

 

    

 
SERVICES 

Mains electricity is connected.  Private water (borehole) and private drainage.  LPG central heating.
