A plethora of development opportunities await with a good number of outbuildings as well as the main farmhouse which subject to the usual consents could become ancillary accommodation or even additional dwellings. There are a number of separate access points to the land which additionally might enhance planning prospects
The house itself is expansive offering over 3000 sq.ft of accommodation over two floors. In brief this comprises of a reception hall, two sitting rooms, dining room, conservatory, office as well as the kitchen; to the first floor you will find six double bedrooms in addition to the family bathroom plus an en-suite.
