Accessed by a private driveway and approached through an attractive setback stone entrance, the property enjoys uninterrupted 360 degree panoramic views over the surrounding countryside - a truly unique and elevated setting.

This is a rare opportunity to acquire a beautifully situated farm with excellent agricultural potential, strong lifestyle appeal, and existing farm income supports which may be available for purchasers to take up.

Residence & Outbuildings
The traditional two storey residence has been vacant since January 2025 and now requires modernisation and upgrading. Its existing layout lends itself naturally to redesign, reconfiguration, or extension, offering buyers a superb opportunity to create a modern home in a stunning rural setting.

The private driveway, mature gardens, and elevated position create a peaceful, sheltered environment with remarkable 360 degree views from the house.

A range of outbuildings accompany the residence, including attractive stone buildings believed to be the original dwelling house. These offer exceptional potential for:
- Reincorporation into the main residence
- Conversion to stables or equestrian facilities
- Workshop, studio, or hobby space

The combination of traditional stonework and practical farm buildings adds charm, character, and versatility to the property.
