This beautiful property offers an abundance of flexible and spacious accommodation throughout, with a number of beautiful features such as exposed timbers and fireplaces. This detached non listed property has full planning granted DC/25/1682/FUL for conversion in to a substantial home of approximately 4000ft2. The proposed layout will offer a stunning open plan kitchen/living area with a further separate sitting room and study. There is a extensive storage area that could also lend itself to conversion for additional accommodation. On the first floor you will find a number of rooms that can be reconfigured to create your desired layout,
Outside, The Bull Inn occupies a generous plot with vehicular access leading to what currently is a large carpark and garden area that is sufficient space for an area of private off-street parking as well as an attractive garden, with a stone paved terrace adjacent to the property itself. A section of the property which is currently accessible from the rear lends itself beautifully for potential conversion that could make a perfect annex, home office or studio.
