About this property

  • Characterful home with origins dating back to circa 1840

  • Generous living accommodation arranged over two floors

  • Two spacious double bedrooms, including a principal bedroom with en suite

  • Large lounge and well-proportioned kitchen/dining room

  • Substantial range of outbuildings totalling approx. 717 sq ft

  • Detached garden room, ideal for home working or hobbies

  • Former planning permission for extension (Ref: 3BR/2022/0871/fp)

  • Excellent scope for further enhancement, subject to consents

  • A peaceful, rural lifestyle opportunity with flexibility and space

Believed to date back to circa 1840, this charming and individual home offers an appealing blend of period character, later additions, and excellent ancillary space - perfectly suited to those seeking a more rural, flexible lifestyle

The property has evolved over time, with the rear section extended in the late 1970s and the front portion carefully rebuilt in 2003 following a fire. Today, it presents as a comfortable and well-proportioned home, with scope for further improvement or extension, as demonstrated by previous planning permission granted in 2022 (now lapsed).

Internally, the accommodation flows well for everyday living and entertaining, while externally the property truly comes into its own, offering an impressive range of outbuildings and a detached garden room, ideal for those working from home, running a small business, or simply enjoying additional space away from the main house.

This is a home that lends itself to a slower pace of life - whether that’s entertaining, working remotely, or simply enjoying the sense of space and potential on offer.
