A car port and log store are found on the western side of the house. The detached garage 29’ x 13’1 with power and light, is found adjacent to the boundary with one of the neighbouring barns. The drive proceeds passed the shippon 34’8 x 15’1 having power and light, up to the tractor shed/barn 41’3 x 16’8 with power and light and mezzanine floor. Attached to the tractor shed are a mower shed 10’ x 7’, store shed 12’ x 9’9 and a stable 11’ x 10’ with tack room. There is ample parking up here within the yard and a stunning stone wall that sets it off beautifully. The main access to the paddocks is found up here. The outbuildings in general are of good condition, with development potential considered to convert into dwellings/ letting properties, subject to gaining the neccassery consents.

The gardens

The formal gardens are superbly presented being principally laid to lawn, being gently sloping up to the post and rail fencing beside the largest paddock. On the north eastern side of the farmhouse enclosed by low hedging is a secret garden waiting to be created whilst beyond is a huge swathe of lawn that runs along the tree line boundary and would be a great location for a grass tennis court, or a sand school/ further grazing if required.

The land

The land total approximately 8 acres comprising three post and railed paddocks interlinked via field gates, a grass track runs beside to allow freedom of movement for both animals and vehicles. One of the paddocks hidden behind the first treeline has a hay store adjacent and beyond is a small area of light woodland. The land is thought to ideal suit those looking for an equestrian set up or as a small holding.
