Beyond the main farmhouse, the property benefits from three highly successful holiday cottages, providing established income and flexibility for multigenerational living or guest accommodation. The setting extends to approximately 10.5 acres, giving the home a sense of privacy and space.

For those with equestrian interests, the grounds include multiple stabling, a sand school with a full underground drainage system topped with fibre and sand, allowing for excellent drainage and full use throughout the year. Additional automatic water feeders are located throughout the land, serving the needs of a range of animals.
