Outside

Approached via a shared driveway, the entrance sweeps down to the property before turning left into a generous parking area serving the main house. The driveway then continues to a five-bar gate, providing access into the land — this also offers the designated entrance for the proposed new build, should a purchaser wish to take advantage of the approved planning permission.

To the rear of the residence, a large paved patio adjoins the house, offering the perfect spot for outdoor dining and entertaining, with a terraced seating area that takes full advantage of the elevated position and far-reaching countryside views. The land slopes gently away, adding to the open and rural feel of the plot.

The grounds extend to 0.88 acres in total and include a hardstanding area beside the detached barn — the approved site for the new build. The barn itself provides substantial space for storage, workshop use, or other potential uses (subject to any necessary consents). Surrounded by (truncated)
