Land & Buildings

OUTSIDE, OUTBUILDINGS & LAND
The property is initially approached off a single unmade track road which leads to Drumjin Cottage and it’s two close neighbours and from which a private driveway then leads to a private parking area adjacent to the residence with ample parking and turning space.  The front garden has been laid to lawn with a variety of soft fruit bushes including black and redcurrants, gooseberry, rhubarb, and apple trees. A large walled garden lies to the rear of the property with a gravel and woodchip surface for ease of maintenance. There are two raised beds, apple, pear and kiwi fruit trees. There is also a feature well with a hand pump.

There are the following buildings with approximate sizes:

TRADITIONAL BARN ONE 22’9 x 13’ (about 6.9m x 4m) currently used as a workshop with east facing window, wood-burning stove and power supplies, attached to:

TRADITIONAL BARN TWO 22’9 x 13’ (about 6.9m x 4m) loft storage area, power and light connected, tiled floor, currently used for storage of hay, rugs and feed, etc.

TWO TIMBER LOOSE BOXES built by Saltire within a new schooling area

TRADITIONAL BARN THREE this roofless barn is attached to the main residence and formerly had planning permission for conversion to provide an extension comprising three rooms and a bathroom however this has now expired

The land adjoins the property with a predominantly south west facing aspect and is very well drained, productive pasture.  It is post and wire fenced within a stone wall / hedge boundary and is virtually level with a slight incline in places which helps drain into two large stocked ponds which provide a natural water supply to much of the grazing and attract an abundance of wildlife.

In one of the paddocks there is the grave of a former owner with a marker stone enclosed with a wire fence.

The water supply is collected from downpipes off the stable yard and is contained in storage tanks.  There are solar powered lights and a small PIG RUN with an arc suitable for a couple of pigs.
