OUTSIDE:
The property is approached via a private driveway, over which the property has an established right of access, and towards the bottom of the drive it splits, bearing left down towards the cottage and right leading up to the yard and buildings. Along the entirety of the drive there is an area of woodland approaching approximately one acre in total which sits to the left hand side. As one leads down to the parking area to the side of the property there is space for two to three cars. The pleasant gardens open up with terraced areas offering a variety of vegetable and soft fruit areas, as well as well-stocked flower and shrub beds and borders and there is an attractive stone barn. The gardens lead down to stream borders. Beyond this is a tranquil established orchard area. To the far side of the cottage and annexe is a pleasant level side area with aluminium framed greenhouse measuring 18'4" x 10'4" (5.58m x 3.14m), and two further sheds to the side of the greenhouse, both in a comparatively poor state of repair. To the rear of the annexe/cottage is a further lean-to storage shed/utility area measuring 14' 10" x 7'4" (4.52m x 2.23m) with power and light connected. To the side of the property there is also a door to a Gardeners WC. Steps lead up behind the cottage to the yard area, where there is further gated access to the field, and a range of open fronted store sheds/carports with power and light connected, the central one with an arched roof giving added height for the tractor also has an inspection pit. These measure from left to right, 6'11" x 15'11" (2.10m x 4.85m), 8'9" x 15'11" (2.66m x 4.85m) and 7'0" x 15'10" (2.13m x 4.82m). To the right of the access way, are two timber work shops, the smaller workshop measures 22'10" x 13'9" (6.95m x 4.19m), this is fully insulated and boarded out, with power connected and two night storage heaters. Workshop two is 22'2" x 32'0" (6.75m x 9.75m), with concrete flooring, double opening doors to front and rear, vaulted ceiling, two windows to front. Power and light connected. Behind this barn is a pedestrian access and two lean-to storage areas. The pasture is gently sloping at the top. although the gradient steepens as one goes down the field, and in the far right hand corner, (when walking down from the top), there is an area of natural water suitable for livestock. At the very top of the field, there is a further independent gateway, with direct road access over a small area of common.
