Farm

Higher Heights Farm comprises a spacious traditionally constructed stone faced 1970s property with a Gross Internal Area extending to approximately 468.31 square metres (5,041 square feet). Now requiring extensive modernisation or re-design including the possibility, subject to consent, of demolition and reconstruction. The house was designed by the previous owner to take advantage of the commanding views of the surrounding countryside. The property is likely to appeal to owner occupiers wanting to put their own stamp on the property to create a fabulous bespoke residence.

There are also a number of outbuildings, including an attached stone barn extending to 84.73 square metres (912 square feet) on the ground floor together with a mezzanine floor extending to approximately 33.63 square metres (362 square feet) together with two attached stables, all crying out for residential redevelopment subject to appropriate consents.

As well as almost 3 acres of formal designer gardens including mature trees, shrubs and a pond offering secluded and tranquil walks, there is a former piggery and vegetable garden which, once again, offers potential for residential development subject to consent.

The whole site extends to approximately 12.86 acres (5.20 hectares) including useful fields suitable as meadows or grazing, but for those with an equestrian bent there is a separate stable block with 8 stables included in the sale.
