The adjoining land is easily accessible, stock proof and in three separate fields, making it perfect for hobby farmers looking for a lifestyle property.

The Accommodation

Although access is gained mostly from the rear of the property, a front porch at the front elevation welcomes a spacious hallway fitted with laminate flooring and with a useful storage cupboard, access to a separate loo and double glass paned doors on right into the living room. The hallway also features a freestanding woodburning stove, an excellent addition in the colder months for heating the property. The living room is spacious and bright, boasting windows to the front and side elevation, featuring wooden parquet tile flooring and another woodburning stove set on a stone hearth. From the hallway, there are two further glass paned single doors which opens onto the kitchen/diner.

The kitchen is fitted with cabinets along the rear elevation, with solid wooden worktops and a stainless steel drainer sink with mixer tap, built in on the left looking over the garden. There is ample space for dining, creating the perfect space for breakfast, lunch or dinner. Off the kitchen there is a very useful utility room, fitted with some extra wall mounted storage units and shelving with space underneath for several white goods. A rear, double glazed porch sits off the utility room which is mostly used for accessing the property.

Further down the hallway you will find three good sized double bedrooms and the family bathroom. All of the bedrooms have plenty of space for freestanding wardrobes. The family bathroom comprises of a three piece suite including a white, WC and pedestal sink and a classic pink bath which the owner has kept due to its larger size compared to modern day baths. The bathroom is finished with laminate flooring and tiling to the walls. There is a mains fed shower supply located above the bath. The bedroom at the end of the hall is complete with a sun room off it, which is being used as a crafts room but may also serve as an office/study. There is fibre broadband to the premises.

Externally the property is situated in a pleasant, rural setting located at the end of a short private track. Struanlee has a right of access to where the boundary begins and maintenance is shared. The smallholding sits in roughly 3.29 acres and features a variety of multi-purpose sheds and outbuildings which may be used to suit the needs of the new owner. There is a concrete yard for parking and former detached garage which the current owner has converted into a one bedroom studio, ideal for those considering multi-generational living. The former garage has been well-insulated and is complete with a small kitchenette, shower room, bedroom and living area with woodburning stove.

Other buildings on the property include a timber frame workshop with access doors for storing a small tractor/quad bike. The workshop is ideal for those with a business or those with hobbies as it benefits from electricity. A larger building with corrugated metal sheet cladded walls and metal sheet profile roof is being used as a lambing shed. There is water supply to most areas of the site and the land is split into a mixture of smaller paddocks, pig pen, sheep run, vegetable plots and orchard. There is a lovely seating area outside the former garage and there is a smaller studio which has also been insulated and boarded which would also lend itself to a variety of purposes. There is a generous sized garden at the back of the house with log store and greenhouse. A timber frame pergola with polycarbonate sheet roof provides pleasant shade for dining outside on the concrete poured patio.

Struanlee is a unique property which is currently registered as a smallholding but would also make for an excellent family home with a few acres of land and some buildings. Whether you’re looking to escape to the country, continue running a business or would just like to raise some smaller livestock, this property is certainly worth seeing.
