Approximately 7 acres of pasture with two ponds
Set on about seven acres with two ponds, this substantial smallholding offers a rare coastal outlook and genuine rural scope. The detached mid-20th-century bungalow provides spacious rooms including a large living room, kitchen/breakfast space and conservatory, alongside a sizeable portal-framed barn and several outbuildings suitable for storage, workshop or annex conversion.
The house requires sympathetic renovation: heating is mainly electric/portable with an oil-fired AGA range and multi-fuel stove, walls are cavity-built with assumed no insulation, and some modernisation is needed throughout. Broadband is very slow and services are basic (mains electricity and water, private drainage). The site is most attractive to buyers seeking land for hobby farming, equestrian use or rural lifestyle improvements.
Important: the property is subject to an Agricultural Occupancy Condition restricting occupation to those employed, formerly employed or retired from agriculture or forestry in the locality. This materially limits buyer pool and use. Council Tax is high and the building dates from the late 1960s–1970s, so expect typical maintenance/upgrade costs.
For a purchaser eligible under the occupancy restriction, this is an opportunity to create a comfortable coastal smallholding with large paddocks, useful buildings and potential to improve energy performance and living accommodation.
