About Meal Hill Farm
A traditional farmhouse which occupies a pleasant setting down its own private driveway surrounded by approximately 16 acres of private grounds in a ringfence with no public footpaths running through. The farm was purchased by our clients in 1961 and has clearly been enjoyed as a family home throughout the years. It now offers the potential for new owners to take on the property and put their own stamp on things.

The farmhouse is of traditional stone-built construction under a stone slate pitched roof with a 2 storey extension to the side. At the other side of the house is a large 2 storey barn with lean-to sections at the side and rear, offering great scope for conversion, or to be used for other purposes depending on the client’s needs.

It features a day to day entrance hall with access to the coal store, utility / WC and breakfast kitchen. A step down leads to the more formal entrance hall where there is a central entrance door, access to the dining room and a staircase to the first floor. A further door leads to the main lounge, which in turn has double doors with steps leading down to an additional lounge at a lower level – this being converted from part of the original barn.

Upstairs, there is a pleasant landing area with a broad window enjoying the views to the rear. The principal bedroom is of a good size and features a range of fitted furniture and an en-suite shower room. There is a further double bedroom, 2 good sized single bedrooms and a house bathroom.

The adjacent barn offers significant potential to enlarge the accommodation or indeed create a separate dwelling or annex if required – this would require planning permission which has not been applied for. A stone-built lean-to adjoins the side of the building and accommodates 2 stables whilst a
more recent block and timber building is attached to the rear of the barn.
