EXTERNALLY

The property is approached from the village road via a drive to the side of the house. There is planning to erect a GARAGE / WORKSHOP here and the concrete slab is already in place.

To the front of the property is a reasonably sized area of garden, some of which is given over to additional parking space.

Immediately to the rear of the house is a raised wooden veranda. This provides views over open countryside. This runs the entire length of the property.

To the side of the property is a further covered veranda

The rear garden consists of lawn and productive vegetable garden. In one corner is a substantial poly-tunnel 25’ x 15’. Above the poly tunnel is a TOOL SHED which consists of a grounded van body. At the opposite end of the garden is a greenhouse 10’ x 8’.

In total, the plot probably extends to more than 1/4 acre and is currently used to produce most of the vegetables for the vendor’s family.

THE SMALLHOLDING

The land, which extends to some 6 acres, lies just over a mile away down a country lane. Approx. 2 acres are under cultivation. There are poly-tunnels, chicken houses, a modern agricultural shed etc. on the land. Currently, the vendor runs a few pigs and chickens as well as producing vegetables, and a wide range of fruits.

In the past, the vendor has sold eggs, vegetables and pork to local customers, but due to ill-health, this business has been run down. However, the business is there to be built up again, and the vendor will provide a list of existing clients for anyone who would like to work the holding.

Below the cultivated land there is a further field of approx 4 acres. This has been unused for some time, but would be ideal for further cultivation, livestock or for a horse or two. The land is bounded by streams so there is always water available for the animals.

SERVICES

Mains water and electricity are connected. There is LPG central heating and solar panels to provide cheap hot water. Private drainage.
