DESCRIPTION
Offered to the market with no onward chain, this peacefully located countryside home offers an exceptional level of versatility, comprising a principal 3-bedroom detached house, plus a 2-bedroom stone cottage and a detached 2-bedroom barn conversion with consent for holiday occupancy. Each of the dwellings requires a degree of modernisation or refurbishment, but together they offer a tremendous opportunity for those needing an annexe or multi-generational living and those seeking to generate an income through holiday or residential letting (or a combination of both). Additionally, the property is accompanied by several paddocks and outbuildings including extensive stabling, ideal for keen equestrian enthusiasts and those seeking to establish a smallholding, with moorland outriding available less than a mile away.

ACCOMMODATION
The three dwellings are arranged around a tarmac drive and each has its own access. The house and cottage have unrestricted residential consent, whilst the barn conversion (The Mews) has consent for holiday use.

THE HOUSE - Situated at the head of the drive, the principal house has a block-paved driveway to the side which provides parking space for a couple of vehicles. There is a formal entrance porch into a central reception hallway, from where there are doors to a sitting room centered around a log burner, separate dual-aspect dining room, kitchen and WC. To one side of the kitchen is a side porch, utility and plant room. On the first floor are three double bedrooms, including a dual-aspect master with en-suite shower room, and a standalone shower room. The accommodation is generally very bright, with plenty of natural light, and is in need of thorough modernisation. Externally, the house is accompanied by a pretty, terraced lawn garden at the rear which is planted with an array of colourful flowering plants and shrubs. Beyond the lawn garden is a large, traditional walled garden, enclosed by high stone and brick walls, which was once a productive kitchen garden and, with some attention, this could be reinstated.

THE COTTAGE - To the northwest of the drive, the cottage dates to 1877 and has been re-roofed in the last few years. It is complemented by an attached, open-fronted stone garage to one side and a very attractive, walled cottage garden to the other, where there is a useful garden store. The accommodation is briefly comprised of an entrance conservatory, sitting room, dining room, kitchen, wet room and two first-floor double bedrooms. The cottage is charming and characterful in nature although also in need of thorough modernisation.

THE MEWS - Opposite the cottage, the 2-bedroom holiday barn was converted around 15 years ago and is generally in good condition, although some lighter cosmetic improvement and alteration may be desirable. The accommodation comprises an entrance hall, kitchen/dining room, sitting room with log burner and patio doors, WC, two good-sized double bedrooms and a bathroom. Off the principal bedroom is a large storage loft and there is also an integral garage off the hallway. Outside, to the side of the barn is a small courtyard and parking space.

LAND AND STABLING
A cobbled lane leads from the top of the tarmac drive, past the large walled garden, to the land and outbuildings. There are four fields amounting to approximately 7.5 acres, served by a large barn with power and water, divided internally into several stables and associated stores, which could be adapted in a number of different ways to provide storage for tack, hay or machinery. Further along are a second stable block comprising an additional four boxes a tack room, and a large open-fronted hay store. The fields slope gently northwards, are well-fenced and enclosed, and have a secondary access point out to a track at the western end of the site. From here, there is moorland outriding accessible within a few hundred yards.
