We are instructed by the vendors to sell this detached property for the highest offer in excess of £400,000.
If you are looking for something different, and something that has a little extra, then here it is. The Forge sits in the very heart of Binstead village and at one time was not only home to the village Blacksmith, but was also place that played host to local village 'dances'. The four bedroom stone built home dates back to the 1800s and the benefit of a number of outbuildings, including the original forge; part of which was at one time used as a hairdressing salon. There is also a detached stone built stable to the rear which, subject to planning consent, could perhaps be converted into another dwelling. There are gardens, off street parking and the property is being sold with no onward chain.
