The property will be particularly appealing to equestrian purchasers, with two stables, a feed/store room and a substantial workshop with electricity connected. Direct access to outstanding hacking routes from the doorstep further enhances its appeal. Equally, the acreage and facilities lend themselves to use as a smallholding.
A stream and private spring provide the property’s water supply, with drainage via a septic tank. Combined with the biomass heating system and solar panels, this creates an impressively eco-conscious rural home.
