Description

A CHARACTERFUL FARMHOUSE WITH ADJACENT TWO-BEDROOM ANNEXE, SET WITHIN GREENBELT COUNTRYSIDE

Believed to date from 1751, The Gatehouse is a sensitively converted former dairy farm that combines historic character with a clean, contemporary interior. Link-detached in form, the property is arranged as a three-bedroom principal house with an adjacent two-bedroom annexe, creating a highly versatile overall layout.

Within the main house, a generous dining kitchen forms the heart of the home, complemented by a well-proportioned sitting room centred around a log-burning stove. A fully tanked cellar provides additional flexibility and is currently used as a gym, alongside useful built-in storage cupboards.

Upstairs, the spacious landing incorporates a discreet home office/study area, positioned to take advantage of a large window with open views across the surrounding countryside. The three bedrooms within the main house are all well proportioned, offering comfortable and practical accommodation.

The adjacent annexe has been thoughtfully designed with accessibility in mind, featuring level flooring and widened doorways throughout the ground floor. This includes a ground-floor bedroom with a fully adapted en-suite wet room. A further bedroom and bathroom are located on the first floor, allowing the annexe to accommodate a range of living arrangements. It is currently generating from 146 days an income in excess of £15,000 for 2025.

Set within greenbelt land, the property enjoys far-reaching views and a beautiful setting with established, landscaped gardens. Despite its peaceful rural surroundings, it remains well placed for access to nearby villages and transport links, offering a rare balance of privacy and connectivity.
