The Old Dairy is a striking former farm building converted in 2010 into a light-filled, modern family home. Set within about 7.5 acres of paddock, pond, woodland and formal lawns, the house delivers generous open-plan living, principal and guest suites, and substantial outbuildings including a two-car open bay garage with loft space. Eco credentials are strong: ground-source and air-source heat pumps, zoned underfloor heating and extensive insulation keep running costs lower than a typical rural house.
The property is presented in excellent decorative order and is essentially move-in ready, with quality finishes such as oak floors, vaulted ceilings, exposed timbers and a fitted kitchen with quartz surfaces. Outside offers private, rural living with a heated saltwater swimming pool (electric cover), terraced decking and sweeping views across farmed countryside — ideal for families or buyers seeking a country retreat with modern convenience.
Buyers should note material constraints alongside the positives. The house sits under curtilage listing, which will limit alterations and could complicate future works. Heating fuel is LPG (not a communal supply) which can be more expensive and requires delivery. Council tax is described as quite expensive. The property is recorded as semi‑detached in the data, despite its barn conversion character; practical access and boundaries should be checked.
This is a tranquil, rural home for buyers who value space, privacy and sympathetic conversion detail, and who are comfortable with the responsibilities of a large plot and listed-curtilage constraints.
