Outside
Lings Farm is approached by a five bar gate over a gravel driveway. There is a mature hedge at the front of the property and an area of lawn. The driveway leads round to a parking and turning area and from here gives access to the detached barn (built in 1997) which is of weather boarded construction under a tiled roof, with remote control roller shutter door and mezzanine level. The 4KW solar PV panels are mounted on the south facing roof and inside there are 13KW of batteries. This building (subject to any necessary consent) would make an ideal annexe with dependant relative or such like. Adjoining the building is a lean-to garage. whilst to the other side there is a store room with double doors to the front. There is also a cart lodge garage, one side being open fronted and the other with double doors used as a log store. A further double garage was constructed in 2013 with a large single roller shutter remote controlled door. Lings Farm would be ideal for the car or vehicle enthusiast.

The gardens at the rear and side of the property are predominately laid to lawn, with a small fruit orchard. There is also a large terrace area ideal for barbeques and alfresco dining. The rear garden commands spectacular views and in total the grounds are just over half an acre (sts).
