Accommodation
Highfield House Farm presents a traditional, stone built dwelling upon a generously-sized plot with spacious accommodation suitable for family living. Internally the dwelling would benefit from modernisation but offers plentiful opportunity.
Welcomed by a good-sized hallway, the front entrance offers access to a pleasant reception room to the right and to the left an open-plan dining room through to a lounge with dual aspect windows overlooking the garden to the side. The kitchen situates to the rear of the ground floor, with access to the cellar, a rear porch, and a cloakroom with w/c. With stairs rising from the entrance hall, the first floor offers three spacious double bedrooms, a family bathroom, and useful airing cupboard. The accommodation requires renovations but allows a purchaser to modernise to their own taste, and adapt the internal layout should one wish.
Externally
Highfield House Farm occupies a sizeable plot, with a pleasant and private lawned garden area lined by mature trees laying to the side of the dwelling, and off road parking/yard area to the alternate side. A small range of traditional outbuildings situate to the rear of the dwelling, previously utilised for agricultural purposes, offering great flexibility in their uses whether that be stabling, livestock housing, workshops or general garden stores.
Briefly the outbuildings comprise;
-A Shippon adjoining the dwelling with potential for conversion into the accommodation (subject to planning consent).
-A stone built garage internally divided with a general store to one side
-A collection of stone built barns and former pig stys
Land
The paddocks situate to the rear of the dwelling, extending to approx. 3.55 acres, all down to permanent pasture suitable for grazing of livestock and mowing. The paddocks are bounded by dry stone walling and internally divided into multiple field parcels, with access from the yard area at the dwelling and a second entrance way via a driveway from the roadside. Due to the situation of the land, the property presents development potential, although no planning applications have ever been submitted.
