The farm buildings have the benefit of light, power and water supplies. A floorplan for the outbuildings is available upon request.

Land - The land forms a defining feature of the property, providing an attractive and versatile setting that completely surrounds the farmstead. Classified as Grade 4 on the Agricultural Land Classification scale, it is well suited to pasture and has traditionally been used for grazing and mowing. Adding to its character, the holding includes a number of small woodland parcels along with a diverse mix of mature trees that create natural shelter, enhance biodiversity, and give the landscape a timeless rural charm. The acreage is thoughtfully divided into manageable enclosures, offering flexibility for a variety of uses, whether for livestock, equestrian purposes, or environmental schemes. The ground rises gently across the holding, ranging from around 700 feet above sea level at its lowest point to approximately 1,000 feet at its highest. The farmstead itself is attractively positioned at about 850 feet above sea level, providing open aspects across the surrounding countryside and a strong sense of seclusion and privacy. The land is registered with Defra, allowing the purchaser to take advantage of current or future management and stewardship schemes if desired. This offers scope not only for agricultural use but also for conservation and environmental enhancement. Water is supplied by both a private borehole and natural sources, ensuring a reliable and sustainable provision across the holding. This combination of pasture, woodland, and natural features makes the land not only a practical agricultural asset but also a haven for wildlife and a beautiful setting for the farmstead.
