Description
A rare and exciting opportunity to acquire this versatile, income-generating property, set within approximately 1.5 acres of attractive grounds. This unique offering comprises a spacious four/five-bedroom detached house-currently operated as a successful Bed and Breakfast, a self-contained two-bedroom annex dwelling and a well-established glamping site featuring six high-quality pods with dedicated communal facilities.
The main house retains some original character, showcasing original features such as a tiled hallway and period fireplaces, while benefitting from modern extensions. These include a bright and airy day room off the kitchen and a spacious utility room, offering additional flexibility and function. The layout is ideal for multigenerational living, and includes the option of a ground-floor bedroom and bathroom, perfect for accessibility or guest accommodation.
Separate from the main house is a fully independent two-bedroom annex, recently updated and offering superb potential for holiday letting or extended family use. It includes a newly fitted kitchen, comfortable living room, and two double bedrooms, each with en suite shower rooms.
The property sits within a generous 1.5-acre plot, which also includes several barn buildings, a pre-fabricated summer house, and the glamping site. The six fully equipped pods are complemented by a self-contained communal toilet and shower block, and the site has proven a successful small-scale holiday business, attracting visitors seeking a peaceful countryside escape.
