Charming original features such as casement windows, working shutters, high ceilings, exposed beams, and handcrafted joinery have been carefully preserved. Both the farmhouse and barn are currently run as successful holiday accommodation, each enjoying panoramic views from most rooms.

The ground floor centres around a welcoming reception hall and flows into an elegant sitting room and spacious dining room—each featuring timber floors, character fireplaces, and wood-burning stoves. The heart of the home is a generously proportioned kitchen, complete with underfloor heating, an original feature fireplace, bespoke cabinetry, a central island with seating, a double Belfast sink, and a separate fitted utility room boasting original stone shelving and a cloakroom. A large cellar provides additional storage or conversion potential.

Upstairs the principal bedroom offers Jack & Jill access to a stylish en-suite shower room, shared with the third double bedroom. The second dual aspect double bedroom enjoys plenty of natural light. A contemporary family bathroom completes the first-floor accommodation.

Adjoining the main farmhouse is a beautifully converted two-bedroom barn, offering stylish and contemporary living accommodation. The ground floor features an open-plan kitchen and sitting area, complete with a freestanding wood-burning stove and a light-filled conservatory, creating a perfect space for relaxing or entertaining. Upstairs, there are two generously sized double bedrooms, served by a modern en-suite bathroom and a separate shower room. Externally, there is a fully glazed and fitted utility room for added convenience.

There is also potential to reconfigure the layout by integrating the barn with the main farmhouse to create a single, larger residence—subject to the necessary planning consents.
