Property

Entering through the gateway, you are immediately welcomed into a well-maintained and practical smallholding, with useful outbuildings positioned to either side and the cottage set ahead. The land lies to the front, with access from the yard leading directly out to the fields. The cottage opens into a spacious and characterful main living area, combining both lounge and dining spaces. Natural light pours in through dual-aspect windows, framing attractive views of the surrounding countryside, while original wooden beams and inglenook brick fireplace with a multifuel stove creates a warm and inviting atmosphere. The dining area comfortably accommodates a family table, and doors lead through to the kitchen on one side, with access ahead to the shower room and staircase.

The kitchen is fitted with a range of wall and base units, incorporating a sink and space for a freestanding oven, and leads through to a useful pantry and rear garden. A rear door opens into a covered area, ideal for removing muddy boots after a day outdoors. Completing the ground floor is a stylishly updated shower room with a double cubicle and WC.

The cottage is adorned with a climbing rose to the front, with gardens wrapping around the property. Predominantly laid to lawn, the gardens are complemented by established shrubs and well-stocked flower beds. The current owners have enjoyed productive growing here, with raised beds and a greenhouse providing an excellent opportunity for keen gardeners.

Outbuildings

A range of useful outbuildings are situated around the yard. The largest barn is versatile in its current open-fronted form but could easily be subdivided into individual pens if required. It benefits from a partially concreted floor, along with power, water and lighting. A second open barn is currently used for tractor storage and would equally serve well as a hay store or additional livestock shelter. There is also an attached workshop/store, along with several smaller sheds, ideal for use as kennels, storage or log stores.

Land

Extending to approximately 6.09 acres, the land lies to the front of the property and is divided into a number of fenced paddocks. Mature trees provide natural shelter for livestock or horses, while the Llifior Brook forms the eastern boundary, offering a natural water source.
