Description

Constructed in 1840, this historic stone house presents a unique opportunity for renovation and investment. The original structure features classic architecture beneath a slate roof, complemented by a mid-20th Century extension that transforms it into a functional family dwelling with three spacious bedrooms. Situated at the front of its generous plot, the property includes a variety of outbuildings at the rear—such as a garage, cart shed, and stable with an upper hayloft—offering potential for conversion or expansion into additional living spaces or ancillary accommodation. The home's entrance is accessible from the rear, leading into a conservatory that doubles as a welcoming hall and breakfast room. Adjacent are practical utility spaces including a boiler room and WC. The kitchen showcases oak-fronted units with ample space for appliances and enjoys lovely views over the countryside. An inviting dining room connects through an archway, also benefiting from scenic front views. The living room at the back serves as a bright communal area with dual aspects and a charming fireplace, perfect for family gatherings. Upstairs, the landing leads to three double bedrooms—all boasting splendid rural vistas—and is served by a shower room/WC. Additional storage can be found in an airing cupboard on the landing. The surrounding garden offers parking access through gated entry, while a sun-catching terrace next to the conservatory enhances outdoor enjoyment amidst well-maintained lawns enclosed by an attractive stone wall. This property has been cherished within the same family since 1894 and now awaits new owners to modernize it for contemporary living while retaining its character. With mains water, electricity, and oil-fired central heating already in place, there’s plenty of scope for enhancement both inside and out.
