EXTERNALLY

The property is set well off a minor no-through road along a track. The track leads into a large parking turning area to the front of the barn.

The house itself lies to one side of the rear of the barn.

To the rear of the house is a large area of garden including a small pond. Beyond this lies open land reaching up to Llanllwni Mountain. The garden is mainly grass, but includes an old orchard. Incorporated in the garden, lying immediately behind the kitchen, is a large patio area which was intended to be a conservatory (the footings having been put in place).

The Buildings

The main building is a fine stone barn with potential for conversion (if desired). This measures approx. 10m x 4.5m internally (32’ x 14’9”). To the side of this is a large enclosed double car port with lean-to hay store to the rear.

There is a static caravan, formerly used for the herb business but suitable for overflow accommodation as it has water and electricity connected.

There is also a large corrugated wood store

The Land

There is one large and one small paddock

Beyond the small paddock is an area of garden complete with two poly-tunnels plus the erected frame of a third. These were the heart of the herb growing business which could very easily be resurrected if desired. If not, then these would be sufficient to provide veg. for a family for most of the year.

For those wanting some livestock, there are two large enclosed chicken runs plus a good sized area fenced off and including a pig sty. There is also a bee hive and bee garden.

SERVICES

Mains electricity and water. Private drainage. Oil-fired central heating.
