The Property
Fir Tree Farm is an expansive and attractive detached property with a luxurious leisure suite comprising swimming pool and gymnasium, occupying a peaceful yet accessible location in a much sought-after area. The property benefits from approximately 2 acres of land.

The property has been updated and upgraded by the current owners and today offers well-presented accommodation with the huge benefit of single storey access throughout. The sitting room is filled with natural light from the triple aspect and overlooks the sweeping countryside. A charming brick archway provides an open flow between the country style kitchen and dining room, where patio doors lead out to the south/west facing deck.

A separate utility room provides space for washing machine, tumble dryer and additional storage. A central hallway runs through the bungalow giving access to the bedrooms. The principal bedroom has an abundance of fitted storage and a well-appointed en-suite bathroom. There are three further bedrooms, all of which benefit from their own en-suite facilities and fitted wardrobes.

A pleasant second sitting room is a sun trap for several hours each day and leads onwards to the leisure suite. The gymnasium connects via glazed sliding doors to the heated swimming pool which measures 12m x 6m, with a maximum depth of 2.4m. The saline pool has a glass filtration system and is heated by two air-source heat pumps, using the natural warmth of the air to generate the comfortable temperatures for the water and pool hall. The leisure suite boasts underfloor heating throughout and a generous shower/changing facility.

Externally
Fir Tree Farm sits within gardens that are predominantly laid to lawn with outdoor seating areas that capture the sun throughout the day. To the east of the leisure suite, foundations are laid for a sports court.
