East Farm is an expansive rural farmhouse complex set in about 2.18 acres including woodland, outbuildings and a sizeable yard. The site currently comprises three residential units (East Farmhouse, Barn Cottage and Barn Cottage Annexe) offering immediate multi‑generational living, rental income potential or scope to consolidate into a single large home (subject to consents). The principal house has four bedrooms, generous reception spaces and traditional features such as cast‑iron stoves and exposed stone walls.
The holding offers strong practical assets for country living: detached garage, two large general‑purpose buildings with concrete floors and power, extensive gravelled and lawned areas, and an LPG tank providing heating fuel. The substantial plot, woodland strip of roughly 1.28 acres and good separation from neighbours make the property well suited to hobby farming, equestrian use or storage and business uses (subject to planning).
Buyers should note material considerations: broadband speeds are very slow, and heating is LPG‑fired (not a community supply). The three dwellings share a septic tank and a shared water meter arrangement for some units; the outbuildings include fibre‑cement roofs and walls which may need specialist inspection or repair. Energy performance ratings are modest (E and F) and some parts will benefit from modernisation to improve efficiency.
East Farm will suit purchasers seeking a substantial rural holding with flexible options — families looking for separate accommodation, buyers wanting rental income, or those wishing to create a single, dramatic country residence. Practical upkeep and improvement work is to be expected given the age and construction of the buildings; viewing will make clear the scale and possibilities of the site.
