Steading and Barn
The traditional stone barn and steading form a series of exceptional and versatile spaces, offering a wealth of potential uses including garage or machinery storage, studio space, home office, and workshop facilities. Subject to the necessary consents, the building also presents an exciting opportunity for further development.

Meticulously maintained, the structure is in excellent condition, having been re-roofed in the 1990s. During this renovation, Velux windows were thoughtfully installed throughout, enhancing natural light and usability.

The barn section features a double-height space with multiple Velux windows, a powered roller door, and a 7kW EV charger, making it ideal for housing several vehicles or larger equipment. Adjoining this is a craft room with a tiled floor, vaulted ceiling, Velux windows, additional windows overlooking the courtyard, a glazed entrance door, and rear access. It is equipped with electric heaters, making it a comfortable and functional workspace, perfect as a home office or creative studio.

The next two areas have stone floors, vaulted ceilings and Velux windows, offering further flexibility, each with access to both the courtyard and rear. A dedicated dry store continues the theme of practicality, with vaulted ceilings, Velux window, power, and lighting.

A larger workshop, divided into two zones, features a corner wood-burning stove, five Velux windows, and power and light, making it ideal for more substantial projects or storage needs. Completing the steading is a generously sized single garage with an up-and-over door, accessed from a stone-gravelled rear courtyard where there is additional parking if required.

Gardens
The grounds extend to approximately 0.75 acres with a beautifully mature garden enclosed by a traditional stone wall. The grounds include raised vegetable beds, a generous lawn interspersed with vibrant planting, and a variety of established trees.

A section of the garden has been thoughtfully maintained as a wildlife-friendly area, encouraging biodiversity and supporting local bird and insect life.
