This plot sits in an elevated position which commands far reaching views over the surrounding countryside.
The Woodlands offers great potential to establish a Business, Equestrian or Smallholding facility. The property has the important benefit of multiple access points to the road, making it ideally suited to a range of business purposes without detriment to the amenity of the dwelling. A spacious yard area services the building which could also be useful for HGV's etc. (subject to planning).
