Description
Rare ring fenced small holding of 34 acres close to the coast and located in a sought after location on a ‘no through’ private road with no near neighbours. The property has been previously registered since 2004 to 2022 as organic with the Soil Association and used predominantly for equestrian use with very few livestock. The main residence is a former barn conversion which has been developed over a period of time and presents a wonderful opportunity to further improve. The property has reverse living accommodation with 3 bedrooms and bathroom on the ground floor and open plan living and dining room with separate kitchen on the first floor under impressive vaulted ceilings. In the grounds is a large agricultural barn (60’ x 30’) which has further development potential subject to planning permission being achieved and stabling with two loose boxes. Beside the barn is a solar panel array which benefits a feed in tariff which the vendor informs us allows them to be cost neutral on their energy bills.
Set away from the main house is a detached purpose built pine lodge which comprises open plan living downstairs with bathroom and two bedrooms on the first floor. Outside it has its own terrace and hot tub overlooking a wild flower meadow and walks down to a large pond. This has previously been a successful holiday let generating approx. £700 per week.
Beside the lodge is detached home office also benefitting power and lighting. The land is split into several paddocks which in total extends to approx. 29 acres with the whole estate extending to approx. 34 acres.
High interest is expected for this private and secluded estate.
