The Farmhouse

The farmhouse is a characterful stone-built residence beneath a pitched slate roof, retaining a wealth of traditional features throughout. While well maintained, the property would benefit from a programme of modernisation, allowing an incoming purchaser to create a home tailored to contemporary tastes and requirements.

The accommodation includes an entrance porch, downstairs WC, kitchen with views across the garden and adjoining farmland, pantry, spacious living room with feature stone fireplace and wood-burning stove and an additional lounge with windows overlooking the front. A staircase leads down to a cellar providing useful storage space / further reception room with door leading to the rear and providing an additional external access. To the first floor are three bedrooms served by a family bathroom.

Externally, the property is complemented by lawned gardens with surrounding flower beds, mature trees and shrubs, together with a rear driveway and yard area providing access to the farm buildings.

Buildings

To the north of the farmhouse stands a substantial detached traditional stone barn beneath a pitched slate roof. The building retains many original features, including former cattle byers and loft areas. The main central barn is open to the eaves with access to the loft areas and offers excellent potential for conversion or alternative uses, subject to the necessary consents.

Beyond the barn is a useful range of former agricultural buildings, including brick, block and timber-framed structures providing useful storage, workshop and livestock accommodation. The buildings are arranged around a traditional farmyard setting with generous hardstanding and concrete yard areas.

Land

The holding extends to approximately 19.99 acres (8.09 hectares), including around 0.84 acres occupied by the farmhouse, gardens and farmyard. The remaining land comprises productive pasture and meadowland, classified as Grade 3 agricultural land and arranged in a number of well-defined field enclosures within a ring fence.

The land benefits from direct road frontage to Cowling Road and is served by an established stone access track running through the holding, providing convenient access to the various field parcels and buildings.
