Description
• SEMI-RURAL LOCATION • GRADE II LISTED CHARACTER HOME • FANTASTIC OPPORTUNITY TO MODERNISE • LAND EXTENDING TO 19.632 ACRES (7.945 HA) • NUMEROUS OUTBUILDINGS – REQUIRING REDEVELOPMENT BUT WITH FANTASTIC POTENTIAL
This is a rare and exciting opportunity for anybody wishing to take on a substantial redevelopment project, particularly those with equestrian interests. The property is approached off Scotland Lane with its own private driveway which affords the property and gardens a high level of privacy. The character stone-built property provides spacious accommodation arranged over two floors and has excellent potential to be a most impressive home.
The accommodation to the ground floor includes an entrance hall, a particularly large sitting room, games room, snug, house bathroom, dining room and kitchen with rear porch. To the first floor there are four double bedrooms and a large house bathroom.
Adjoining the accommodation is a very good sized garage/workshop with an upper floor that provides excellent further potential to extend this accommodation subject to any necessary consents.
To the outside of the property there are large formal gardens whilst to the rear a courtyard provides ample parking for a number of vehicles also giving access to the selection of outbuildings and access to the land. The collection of outbuildings includes a large outhouse, menage and 12 loose boxes – all of which require extensive renovation or rebuilding works. Surrounding the property to the east, south and west are fields amounting to 17.654 acres (7.144 Ha). (Please note the vendor would be prepared to consider selling the property with different land lot sizes.)
