The Outbuildings:
These benefit from a separate road access, along with access via the main entrance drive. They are serviced predominantly by a large concreted yard area, and may be further described as follows:-
- Steel portal framed general purpose building and adjoining covered yard (former cubicle shed), with concrete flooring, beneath a pitched corrugated iron roof. The building is fully enclosed with blockwork to part and some corrugated iron cladding. Electricity connected. The building is highly versatile and suitable for a variety of uses (subject to any necessary planning permissions).
- Block built former shippen beneath a corrugated iron roof with a 12no. panel solar PV array (installed in April 2023) on the south-facing roof pitch, and power and light connected. The building is adaptable and currently arranged internally into two principal bays divided by a timber partition wall. To the east is a mono-pitched lean-to divided into two sections and housing the electric meters and solar PV manifold and controls, along with 2no. battery storage banks (installed in January 2025 and April 2026). A further space contains a sink and serves as a useful utility/storage space. Adjoining also is a garage, and to the north a further lean-to timber framed storage building well suited to machinery or implement storage.
- To the north is a further detached building range, partly of block construction with a corrugated iron roof, and partly comprising a greenhouse with Perspex cladding and roof. This latter section had been used for the cultivation of grape vines, but well-suited to potting, storage or general horticultural uses.
The Land:
The holding extends in total to approximately 10.77 acres and includes a useful block of pasture land divided into two principal enclosures, along with a small area of woodland, providing further amenity and environmental appeal. The land is well suited to grazing, equestrian or smallholding activities, with scope for hobby farming, livestock, orchard planting or amenity use (subject to any necessary planning permissions). The acreage wraps conveniently around the buildings and house, with good access for machinery and stock handling.
