Description
A delightful, rural location in the hamlet of Crendell, incredible potential and 25 acres of land, are just a few features of this fantastic former cattle farm that has had the agricultural restrictions lifted.
Ley Farm presents an incredible opportunity for whoever buys it, with the potential for permitted development of the outbuildings into a large, detached family home and up to four townhouses/cottages. The current owner also has planning permission for a three bedroom mobile home that is currently rented out, as well as permission for three holiday lodges (not yet built).
The seller informs us that the farmhouse was constructed over ten years ago and was designed to be in keeping with the feeling of a typical farmhouse. With this in mind, careful attention was paid the materials used in the construction, with extensive use of solid oak for the double glazed windows, door architraves/skirting and internal doors. There is also lovely, natural travertine marble flooring through the ground floor complimented by underfloor heating.
The sitting room has an inglenook style, beamed fireplace with inset multi-fuel stove that also heats the hot water.
The remainder of the ground floor comprises a useful utility area, cloakroom, downstairs bedroom/study and a comprehensively fitted farmhouse style kitchen/dining room, also with an inglenook style fireplace.
The first floor lies host to three bedrooms, the master with a triple aspect and incredible cathedral style, beamed ceiling and a beautiful fitted, four piece bath/shower room.
From the first floor landing, stairs lead to the second floor where a large bedroom/loft room can be found.
This impressive home further benefits from oil fired central heating (underfloor to the ground & radiators to the first) and oak framed double glazing.
