Description
Gravel House Farm is situated on the outskirts of the village of Coates, which is located 10 miles east of Peterborough. Not only does the area have good road accessibility but the rail network is equally accessible with both Huntingdon and Peterborough being on the East Coast Mainline, providing services to London Kings Cross which takes approximately 1 hour. The town of Whittlesey is approximately 3.2 miles west of Coates and benefits from a variety of shops and services, including a train station which provides services to Birmingham and Stansted Airport.
Description
The site comprises a farmyard, three agricultural buildings and a farmhouse, in total extending to approximately 1.42 acres. The property can be accessed directly from March Road (A605).
The farmhouse comprises a modestly sized, two-storey, three-bedroom detached dwelling. The property benefits from a double garage, external office and a generously sized wrap-around garden, providing ample outdoor space and ancillary accommodation. The farmhouse benefits from its own separate access onto the A605.
In addition to the farmhouse, the property benefits from three agricultural buildings of varying size, age and construction. The two buildings immediately to the south of the farmhouse are steel portal-framed structures, enclosed on all elevations and accessed via large sliding doors. Historically, these buildings were used for potato storage and, more recently, for the storage of grain. The third and smaller building is open on its southern elevation and is currently utilised for the storage of agricultural machinery and equipment.
These two structures extend approximately 311m2 and 354m2. The smaller agricultural building is in the centre of the yard, currently used for storage, extending to approximately 70m2.
