Description

Detached traditional stone farmhouse occupying an idyllic rural setting, approached by a track crossing approximately three fields, surrounded by open countryside with a small area of mature woodland

Tenure- Freehold. Council Tax- C, EPC-F

Standing within grounds extending to approximately one acre, the property offers an increasingly rare opportunity to acquire a character home together with an impressive range of traditional stone outbuildings, offering considerable scope for renovation, conversion or further development, subject to the necessary planning consents.
The farmhouse itself is a double-fronted period residence retaining many original character features including exposed stone fireplaces, flagstone flooring, timber floorboards and deep-set sash-style windows. Whilst now requiring a comprehensive programme of modernisation and refurbishment, the property provides excellent potential to create a substantial three-bedroom family home in a delightful rural location. Central heating is installed (not tested).
