Traditional 3-bed cottage on c.4 acres with stables — ideal for equestrian or smallholding buyers..
Around four acres of land with stables and two outbuildings
Traditional stone cottage with exposed beams and wood-burning stove
Sunroom with countryside views and large landscaped garden
Approx. 900 sq ft — compact internal space for three bedrooms
Only one bathroom; may need upgrading for family use
Very slow broadband; poor for regular remote working
Located in a deprived area classification; tenure unknown
Significant maintenance and running costs for large plot
Set on an exceptional plot of around four acres, this traditional three-bedroom stone cottage combines period character with genuine smallholding potential. The house offers cosy, well-proportioned reception rooms with exposed beams, a wood-burning stove and a light sunroom that frames wide countryside views. Two sizeable outbuildings and stables provide immediate equestrian or hobby-farming use and generous storage or workshop space.
Practical drawbacks are clear and must be weighed: the living area is compact (approx. 900 sq ft) for three bedrooms, there is only one bathroom, and broadband speeds are very slow — likely to frustrate remote working or heavy internet use. The property sits in a deprived local area classification, and tenure and council tax details are not provided, which will require clarification early in the buying process. Ongoing maintenance of roughly four acres, buildings and access ways will be significant and should be budgeted for.
This home will suit buyers seeking a countryside lifestyle: families wanting outdoor space, equestrian enthusiasts needing immediate stables and bridleway access, or hobby farmers looking for land. It is less suitable for buyers prioritising fast broadband, low upkeep or a larger internal living footprint. Viewings will best serve those who value setting and land over a modern, low-maintenance dwelling.
