The property is being sold by Joe Coogan Auctioneers by private treaty.
Farm highlights
Among the highlights of this farm, and as its name suggests, the farmhouse and yard were built on an elevated, dry site – always a positive. It has good views over the surrounding countryside.
The land is in one block, divided into seven main fields. Well kept with hedge boundaries, it has frontage on to two public roads. The land is prime for grazing and equally suited for hay and silage. There is a water supply out to the fields.
The land is in one block and is good quality grassland.
The house and yard are together and very central on the farm. They stand out as being tidy and clean and in good condition.
The farmhouse is two-storey and has plenty of rural character. It is family sized at 1,517 sq ft of area. Downstairs, the kitchen opens onto a dining area where there is a stove. The sitting room has an open fireplace, and upstairs, there are three bedrooms. The house has oil fired central heating.
Outside, there is a pebble area to the front of the house, with stud railing. At the rear there is a concrete parking area.
A pleasant garden area on each side of the driveway leads up to the house, and has lawns and shrubs.
The yard is securely contained to allow safe and efficient handling of livestock.
The farmyard is set up for efficient and safe handling of cattle. It is securely contained with fencing, gates and hedging. Gates have been securely hung at the passageways between sheds and around the yard, to control animal movement.
The farm buildings are large. The main shed consists of two three-bay, round roofed sheds lying side by side, each originally a covered silage pit. Each has a lean-to to the side.
In addition, there is a four-bay slatted shed with a centre feed passage. There is a wide, four-bay round roofed shed, suited for storing hay and straw.
There is a cattle crush with holding pen and there is an open concrete yard area.
