This property, historically known as The Old Stables, presents an opportunity for those interested in a blend of historical charm and renovation potential. Originally part of an active farm from the early 1800s, the home features distinctive architectural elements and a layout conducive to modern living, all set within a securely enclosed courtyard.
Upon entering, you are greeted by a spacious entrance hall adorned with flagstone flooring. This area provides access to multiple rooms that enhance the property's versatility. Two reception rooms situated off the entrance could serve various purposes; one currently functions as an office or hobby space, while the other is a sizable utility/laundry room.
The heart of the home is found through a characterful stable door leading to an inviting open-plan kitchen and dining area. The kitchen is equipped with bespoke Beech cabinetry and granite countertops, alongside notable appliances such as an electric Aga. The design includes a stable door that opens directly onto the garden, allowing for easy outdoor access during warmer months.

A detached one-bedroom annexe provides further options for usage; previously functioning as holiday accommodation or guest quarters, it holds significant investment potential for rental income.
A large barn on-site adds to this property's versatility; currently utilized for storage, it comes with planning permission for conversion into a two-bedroom apartment on the upper floor while retaining storage space below.
