Best and final offers invited by Friday 16th October at 12 noon
Description - This delightfully well located site offers great versatility for a varied number of uses including equestrian, leisure and hobby farming, and perhaps even offering potential for residential conversion subject to obtaining necessary consent.
Recently the site has been used as an extension of a smallholding and prior to that it was used for equestrian purposes. The stone barn sits splendidly within the hardstanding courtyard and could provide livestock housing with useful hayloft on the first floor. Adjacent to the barn are two field shelters and next to that is another larger shelter all with gated concrete yard.
The land provides level pasture suitable for grazing and mowing with gated access from the entrance track which continues past the barn through to the northern most fields. The fields have been well fences into smaller paddocks to aid grazing rotation.
The land is easily accessible just set back from the road behind matured hedging. The hedging to the northern boundary is lower height and therefore the views across the neighbouring farmland and valley can be enjoyed more easily.
