Description

Lot One - Village Farmhouse :

Village Farmhouse is an attractive, character filled Grade II listed property, believed to date back to the early 18th Century which offers an exciting opportunity for sympathetic modernisation. The front of the house showcases an abundance of original features including mullioned windows and pilastered front door whilst internally there are exposed timber beams, picture rails and a stunning oak staircase. The accommodation comprises a welcoming sitting room and a cosy snug. A generous dining room benefits from an open fireplace, while the galley-style kitchen sits within a more modern rear extension and is complemented by a separate pantry. A cellar provides useful storage space.

On the first floor, there are three bedrooms and the bathroom is uniquely positioned halfway up the stairs. The second floor houses two spacious attic rooms, currently in need of renovation but offering outstanding potential to create further bedrooms and even a bathroom, subject to any necessary consents.

Externally, the property is enhanced by attractive gardens to the front and side, laid to lawn and bordered by mature shrubs. There is also an integral garage.

Village Farmhouse and the two plots will have the benefit of a communal courtyard parking area.

Brick barn with PP - W2008/0702 :

Permission was granted in 2008 for the conversion of a traditional brick farm building to provide residential accommodation (Ref W2008/0702 & W2008/0703) and sufficient works have been completed to secure this permission ad infinitum.

The current permission allows for the creation of a three bedroom property with attached work/office space, garaging and parking. The garden space is located to the rear with a fabulous outlook over farmland.

Shed Plot - TWC/2015/0030 and TWC/2018/0031:

On the site of a steel-framed dutch barn and agricultural building, which is located at the front of the site, permission has been granted for erection of a four bedroom detached property. Whilst the planning is dated March 2015, once again sufficient works have been completed to secure the planning permission status.

The proposed property has been skilfully designed to meld with the architecture prevalent through the village which is in keeping with the properties of the area.

Garden space is located to the front of the property and a garage is sited to the rear.

Further Land

There may be opportunity to purchase further land at the rear of the site by separate negotiation. This area would be ideal for extended garden space or equally to provide buyers with paddock space suitable for equestrian or smallholding uses.
