House For Sale £650,000
Barroway Drove


Description
When you think of a delightful rural retreat which offers a sense of space, both inside and outside of the home, you may well picture somewhere like Horseshoe Farm. Situated on a vast plot of land which was once nothing but open space, this property has transformed into an ideal smallholding over the past 20 years.

This has been a much-loved home during that time and the kitchen/dining room has served as the heart of this residence. Not only does it provide a warm and inviting atmosphere, but it also offers breath-taking views of the fields and woods at the rear of the property; our clients can't get enough of this picturesque vista.

The sitting room is another inviting space, featuring an open fireplace and dual aspect windows. It's the perfect spot to unwind after a long day, whether you choose to curl up by the fire, indulge in some TV time, or engage in lively conversations with loved ones.

All the bedrooms in this home boast generous proportions, with one of them benefiting from an en-suite shower room. The property has been thoughtfully adapted over the years to accommodate multi-generational living, which saw the garage converted into a second reception room, but could even be a fourth bedroom.

It's the outdoor space, however, which truly sets Horseshoe Farm apart. What was once bare land has now been transformed into a green oasis. A five-bar gate at the front ensures security, while the gravel drive offers ample parking for multiple vehicles. The expansive back field has seen a variety of uses, from hosting animals to becoming a mini woodland attracting a diverse range of wildlife. This tranquil and peaceful setting allows you to connect with nature and enjoy the serenity of country living.

With a small holders' license attached to the property, you'll have the opportunity to explore various agricultural pursuits on the 10.5 acres of land (stms). At Horseshoe Farm, you can embrace the rural setting, revel in a well-proportioned home, and seize the opportunity to nurture your smallholding dreams.
