Description

This exceptional smallholding, occupying an extremely private valley setting is available for the first time in many years. Previous run commercially, producing the first organic vegetable boxes in the UK, the approximate 30 acres of pasture, paddocks and mixed woodland provides numerous opportunities, both professionally or for the hobby smallholder.

The farmhouse, centrally positioned amongst its land, has 15th century origins, although is not listed. In addition to the present owners undertaking a full re-build of the property in the 1980s', an attached annexe has recently been added, offering additional accommodation for a relative or perhaps suitable to generate additional income. With naturally sourced water provided to most of the land, the productive, well fenced paddocks and pasture are further complimented by an array of agricultural buildings including a general purpose barn, an open sided cattle barn and a machinery shed.
