Set within approximately 16 acres in the Forest of Trawden, this 1714 stone property combines period character with practical family living. The layout includes a self-contained annexe and multiple reception rooms, suited to multi-generational households or anyone needing live-in space. Extensive outbuildings and a five‑stable timber block support equestrian use or conversion projects, with planning permissions already in place for further development.
The house retains original stonework, exposed features and a large open-plan living and dining area with a feature fireplace and roof lights. Heating is by an oil‑fired boiler and radiators; the walls are presumed to be solid stone without insulation and glazing is double glazed (install date unknown). Broadband speeds are very slow, though mobile signal is excellent and the site enjoys low crime and strong privacy from a long private driveway.
Practical considerations include an off‑street gravel parking area, fenced paddocks and substantial workshop/storage space. Council tax is described as quite expensive. The property offers clear potential for enhancement or business use (equestrian or small-scale residential conversions) thanks to the plot size and existing planning permissions.
