Property description
Offers In Excess Of £800,000.
An impressive, deceptively spacious 3 bedroom detached barn style property, completely rebuilt in 2017/2018 to a particularly high standard of specification and design, with great attention to detail.
The Chicken Shed is situated at the head of a private lane, standing in gardens and grounds of about 0.909 of an acre.
Formerly part of Hemmings Farm, which was last sold in 1997, the original barn dated back to the 1960s and was separated from the main farmhouse circa 2016. The current property boasts spacious, well appointed accommodation, all on one level, with many outstanding features. No expense has been spared in creating a superb home.
The property is connected to mains water and electricity, with a private drainage treatment plant, LPG heating and oak internal fire doors throughout. Agents’ Note: The property does not have an architect’s certificate – please consult your financial advisor/mortgage lender as to how this may affect your mortgage.
