4 bedroom detached house

An old cottage that was renovated and extended in the early 2000s by last owner who loved the location so much she refused to move until her final days. Now in need of repair, updating and refurbishment, the property provides well planned accommodation. There is a large sitting room with wood burning stove and doors that open onto the terrace. A kitchen / dining hall with a utility and to the rear of the house off the hallway a study and boot room.

Upstairs there are four bedrooms with the main bedroom having a dressing room and door to the bathroom as well as a balcony from which to enjoy the far-reaching views. There are three further bedrooms and a shower room.

Garden and Grounds
A gravelled driveway leads through gates and up to a large parking and turning area to the side of the house with space (subject to planning) for garaging to be built. The gardens and terrace are mainly to the front of the house with a pathway leading down to the stable block and barn.

There are four loose boxes, hay store and tack store as well as barn that needs some work. The land lies to the north of the house with about 6 acres of grazing out of the entire 9.3 acres that comes with Lot 1.

Lot 2 is available by separate negotiation and extends to just over 14 acres over pasture that is well fenced and accessed either of the BOAT (Byway Open to All Traffic) which runs along the western boundary of Lot 1 or a gated access onto the road. There is also a footpath on the northern boundary of Lot 2 as is shown on the plan.
