Description

The property is perfectly suited for agricultural, equestrian or amenity use and offers scope for further development subject to purchasers requirements.


Aysgarth House

The property was built approximately 20 years ago with reclaimed bricks from the old barn, beneath a slate roof. The vendors have enhanced the property substantially under their ownership investing time in renovating the house. The ground floor comprises entrance hallway, WC, kitchen with Stanley range cooker and two large reception rooms both benefitting from log burners.

The house has traditional features with a tasteful, muted colour scheme chosen throughout to enhance the property. Upstairs there are three large double bedrooms, family bathroom with bath and en suite to the master bedroom. Outside, the property has ample parking to the front with scope for further improvement with landscaping of the drive and gardens.

There is a beautiful lake to the side of the house, with a log cabin occupying a fantastic location with views out across the lake. To the rear of the farm buildings there are two static caravans, both of these shall be included in the sale. The first section of the drive is shared with the neighbouring property.
The property is heated via oil central heating, and benefits from mains electricity and water. Waste water is processed to a septic tank.
