This handsome stone period house sits in a very private rural hamlet and has been sympathetically renovated to retain character while adding light, modern living spaces. The main part of the home provides generous family reception rooms and a large kitchen with bifold doors opening onto beautifully landscaped gardens, making indoor/outdoor life easy in warmer months.
With six bedrooms (three en suite) and flexible ground-floor accommodation currently used as ancillary/guest space, the property works well for a large family, multi-generational living or as a continuing holiday-let/B&B investment. Outbuildings include a large barn, three stables and tack room, plus paddocks and woodland extending the holding to about 8.5 acres in total — useful for livestock, small-scale equestrian use or amenity woodland.
Practical strengths include PV panels with a Feed‑in Tariff, mains electricity and water, generous off‑street parking and a substantial internal floor area (about 2,977 sq ft). The property sits in a quiet, low‑crime location with no nearby neighbours and easy road access to nearby coastal towns.
Known limitations are factual: heating is oil‑fired via boiler and radiators, broadband speeds are very slow (standard BT up to ~30 Mbps), and the private drainage system will likely need updating by any purchaser. Council tax sits at Band G, reflecting higher running costs. The setting is rural and relatively remote, with average mobile signal outside — good for privacy but less convenient for constant connectivity.
