A large double garage provides space for cars and a workshop bench.There is plenty of secure space for children and pets to play around the house and gardens, as well as sheds for storing machinery and feed. The orchard includes fruit trees and a vegetable patch alongside a plastic house and a small glasshouse for growing your own food year-round.The land is a mix of contour with fertile pasture, mature shelter belts and a large, picturesque stream-fed pond that was originally dammed as part of an old dairy water scheme located in the centre of the property.
