Above there are three bedrooms and two bathrooms (one en-suite) with separate showers plus plenty of storage.
The adjoining farmyard has a large American barn with eight spacious Monarch loose boxes with an open-sided lean-to with an internal store/ garage. Around the corner is a useful area of hard standing flanked by timber a framed stable block and additional machinery store and stables. There is scope for conversion or development of the site if farming or horses were not an option.
The equestrian yard is approached via a separate entrance further down the lane and produces valuable income as a livery yard as well and bringing on young horses.

There is further planning permission granted for a 30m x 15m barn in the lower yard for staff facilities, and potential for additional staff accommodation should somebody wish to run the business. The surrounding grassland is all used for grazing and each paddock is newly fenced and well serviced.

Ofcom has tested the actual coverage provided in various locations around the UK to help ensure that these predictions are reasonable. The values shown against a property can be broken down as follows:
Clear: No bars, no signal predicted
Red: One bar, reliable signal unlikely
Amber: Two bars, may experience problems with connectivity
