Description
This beautiful traditional farmhouse has four bedrooms, with one of the bedrooms at ground floor level. The property sits on a very generous circa 1.72 acre site with excellent outbuildings all built of stone and blockwork which would have all been part of the farm buildings for the property when it would have sat on a larger land holding.
These offer endless possibilities and the property comes with gardens to the side and rear and excellent spacious site. There are mature shrubs and trees throughout and this private home offers immense possibilities.
The property has single glazed hardwood windows and doors. It is heated by oil-fired central heating to wall-mounted radiators.
Much of the first floor is finished with the traditional timber ceilings which have been painted. The house is under a natural slate roof.
