Description

A rare opportunity to create an exceptional multi-generational country retreat, set within approximately **2.8 acres** of peace, privacy and character in the countryside.

At the heart of the property is a beautifully renovated detached farmhouse, offering a comfortable and welcoming principal family home while retaining the charm and character expected of a traditional rural property. Character features include a **wood burner and an open fire**, adding warmth and atmosphere to the principal living spaces.

Alongside the farmhouse is a renovated small barn, currently ideal as a studio or home office, providing a wonderfully private space for working, creative pursuits or simply getting away from the main house.

The property also benefits from a separate, nearly fully renovated **two-bedroom barn conversion**, with its own space and privacy. Benefiting from full separate residential planning, it provides genuinely independent accommodation and can be sold separately from the main house, offering excellent flexibility for grandparents, adult children, extended family or guests.

Adding even greater character and potential is a substantial 17th-century barn, currently unconverted. Its historic proportions, original character and impressive presence provide an exciting opportunity for the future — whether retained as a magnificent traditional barn, used for storage and entertaining, or potentially transformed subject to the necessary consents.

The surrounding **2.8 acres** provide plenty of space for gardens, paddocks and outdoor living, with the potential to keep **horses or ponies** at home and enjoy the wonderful freedom that comes with having your own piece of countryside.

And despite the peaceful rural setting, there is a lovely sense of community close by. Just a short stroll down a quiet country lane is a beautiful local café, renowned for its amazing coffee — the perfect place for a morning coffee, relaxed lunch or weekend treat.

The arrangement of the buildings creates something increasingly rare: several generations can live together while still enjoying their own independent homes and personal space.

It is a unique opportunity to create a private family compound. A place where several generations can live together, independently but connected, with space for **horses and ponies**, wonderful countryside on the doorstep and a charming café just a short walk away.

A property with character, flexibility and genuine long-term potential, perfectly suited to modern multi-generational family life.
