Set within approximately three acres of paddock land, this substantial and highly versatile property presents a rare opportunity to acquire a well-established home with significant lifestyle and business potential.

The residence itself offers generous and flexible accommodation, comprising five to six bedrooms and three well-proportioned reception rooms, ideal for both family living and entertaining. The layout allows for adaptable use, whether for larger families, multi-generational living, or those seeking dedicated home office space.

A particular highlight of the property is the formally licensed cattery, which is already in place and offers an excellent, ready-made business opportunity with strong income potential. This established facility provides a fantastic foundation for anyone looking to run a successful home-based enterprise.

Equestrian enthusiasts will also appreciate the property’s appeal, with extensive paddock land and a range of outbuildings suitable for stabling, storage, or further development (subject to any necessary consents). The outdoor space lends itself perfectly to those seeking a rural lifestyle with practical land use. There is a barn with hayloft which dates to the 1850s, which is not listed, with an adjacent tackroom which the owners use as a bar. The house garden is secure, private and secluded and a superb entertaining space, with extensive decking, lawn, mature shrubs and hot-tub.

Additional benefits include multiple outbuildings and three garages, offering ample storage, workshop space, or scope for conversion depending on requirements.

Combining comfortable family accommodation, business potential, and equestrian facilities, this is a unique and highly desirable property offering a wealth of possibilities in a sought-after village setting with two pubs, a post office, pharmacy and primary school.
