Fernleigh is a much-improved period farmhouse set in about 1.7 acres of lawns, paddock and outbuildings — ideal for a family seeking space and a semi-rural lifestyle. The ground floor balances cosy, wood-burning reception rooms with a large, light open-plan kitchen/family room that opens onto a sun terrace, creating flexible space for everyday life and entertaining.
Outside offers substantial practical benefits: a paddock and timber stable for small livestock or equestrian hobby use, a tractor barn and generous storage/workshop areas, plus a newly built two-storey triple garage/carport with first-floor space that could become a home office or annexe subject to planning permission. The long driveway and plentiful parking suit households with multiple vehicles or trailers.
The house has been modernised with contemporary fittings, a well-equipped kitchen, utility and boot room, and an ensuite principal bedroom. Buyers should note some material facts: the property currently has an EPC rating of F, the main walls are original solid brick (assumed uninsulated), drainage is to a newly installed treatment plant, and council tax is band E (above average). These are realistic refurbishment considerations for energy and running costs.
Overall, Fernleigh suits families or buyers seeking a permanent country home with significant outside space and practical outbuildings. It offers immediate comfort and scope to add value — for example insulating the solid walls or pursuing planning to convert the garage block — but purchasers should factor in energy-efficiency works and ongoing estate upkeep when budgeting.
