This Grade II-listed farmhouse, believed to date back to the 16th century, presents a remarkable opportunity for renovation and investment. Featuring an array of original period elements, including exposed timber beams and traditional stone and brick fireplaces, this property offers a unique charm that is ripe for restoration and modernization.
Nestled on a peaceful private road, Westlands Farm is laid out to maximize both comfort and utility.

The first floor features a generous principal bedroom complete with a large dressing room and en-suite bathroom. Additionally, three further double bedrooms with built-in wardrobes provide ample accommodation options alongside a family bathroom that could be updated or expanded to suit modern needs.
Adjacent to the main house, the guest cottage offers further flexibility with its own kitchen, large sitting room featuring another wood-burning stove, a ground-floor shower room, and an upstairs double bedroom with an associated bathroom.
