The Property
Set in an elevated position, some 300ft above sea level, the farm enjoys panoramic far reaching countryside views.
To be sold for the first time since 1957, the farm comprises a non-listed detached five-bedroom, double fronted farmhouse, believed to have been constructed circa 1880, of fine proportions under a slate roof retaining many character features and with a south-facing aspect.
The farmhouse boasts three reception rooms, kitchen, utility room, cloakroom to the ground floor. A turning stairwell to a galleried landing, to five bedrooms and a bathroom to the first floor. The house also benefits from a cellar.
The property is approached over a short private driveway leading to a level parking area, parking for several cars to the rear of the property and access to an open fronted carport with store to the side.
Formal gardens, predominantly laid to lawn with mature herbaceous borders lie to the front and side of the house.
