Nestled on over 1.5 acres of land, the property features an expansive layout that includes four bedrooms, generous reception areas, and a traditional farmhouse kitchen, all ripe for modernisation. Character elements such as a wood-burning stove and exposed brick fireplaces can be retained or enhanced to create a unique personal dwelling. The farmhouse is complemented by several outbuildings, including barns and a former pigsty, providing versatile options for utility or potential redevelopment. Whether you envision a workshop, studio space, or additional storage facilities, these structures offer ample possibilities. The private drive ensures convenient access and ample parking for residents and guests, contributing to the property's appeal in this desirable village location. Upon entering the property through its gated entrance, you are greeted by an inviting driveway lined with well-established hedgerows that enhance privacy.
