A rural single storey barn conversion ideal for smallholding use.<br/>Description
West Farndon is a peaceful small hamlet situated in attractive undulating rural south Northamptonshire countryside between the villages of Woodford Halse and Byfield. Both villages have active communities and include primary schools, sport fields and a range of local shops. The market towns of Daventry and Banbury provide for a wider range of facilities. Access to the motorway network includes the M1 at Nether Heyford (14 miles) and the M40 at Banbury (9.5 miles). A rail station can be found at Banbury with London Marylebone links in under an hour. The area has excellent connection to both footpaths and bridleways including the ‘’Jurassic Way’’.
Accommodation
Cleavers Cottage is a very well laid out single storey barn conversion situated on the edge of a quiet peaceful hamlet. Believed to have been converted in the mid-1990s, the property has a good outlook over its land and outbuildings and would suit a smallholder or someone who has small scale equestrian interests, and wants to enjoy the ‘good life’. Many of the rooms in the cottage have vaulted high ceilings, and it is well presented throughout.
The property is approached via a porch (with underfloor heating) to the hallway with a coat cupboard, which runs the entire west side of the house. The sitting room has a corner log burner with a vaulted ceiling and exposed A frame beams. Bi-fold doors open to a quality oak framed garden room (built in 2018) with underfloor heating and French doors opening to the garden. The bespoke kitchen has a double ceramic sink, fridge freezer, dishwasher, washing machine and an induction hob. A family shower room comprises a corner shower cubicle with wash basin and a boiler cupboard. There are three bedrooms including a principal suite with a rolled top bath and a good range of wardrobes.
Outside
The drive leads through a gate to a wide gravel parking area with space for several cars. The gardens and grounds are ideal for entertaining with numerous seating areas, including a terrace with a fishpond and adjacent outbuildings/sheds. There is also a Scandinavian timber hexagonal barbeque building with seating - the perfect place to relax and entertain.
There is a L-shaped timber stables and yard with power and water connection, comprising two boxes, tack/feed rooms with hard-standing to the front and an adjacent holding paddock.
The main paddocks are located to the west side of the property with a combination of post and rail, wire and natural hedging. There is a very useful vehicular access via gates into the stable yard. To the east side, is a private lawned area with greenhouses, a vegetable area and various fruit trees including apple, plum and pear.
