Nestled at the end of a quiet lane, North Kestle presents a remarkable chance for those looking to invest in a rural retreat. This family home, held by the same owners since its purchase in 1925, is awaiting a complete overhaul. With an expansive footprint, the farmhouse offers generous space for transformation into a contemporary residence while retaining its character. Currently configured with a dining room, sitting room, and three store rooms on the ground floor alongside three bedrooms and a dressing room upstairs, the layout is ripe for reimagining.
The potential doesn’t stop with the house; an adjoining two-story barn divided into three rooms provides options for additional living space or creative projects (subject to planning permissions). Outside, the property boasts a small walled garden and an enclosed orchard/paddock featuring a concrete block shippon. Additional stone and slate barns merit attention too, especially with some being in need of refurbishment.
Spanning approximately 4.78 acres, the gently sloping land holds great promise for horticulture or livestock, all while offering picturesque views of the surrounding valley. Though currently lacking some essential services and in need of substantial improvement, North Kestle serves as a blank canvas for visionary buyers eager to create their own countryside haven.
