5 Bedroom House

A unique and very special opportunity to acquire a substantial detached former farmhouse together with an adjoining barn, self contained cottage, outbuildings including indoor swimming pool and delightful mature gardens extending to approximately 1.57 acres. The property retains many unusual and interesting character features, from the Victorian era and, according to the vendor, it was formally a dairy farm and in later years also became a retirement home for horses connected with Newmarket. The adjoining barn was originally used for hay wagons and for hay storage and there is an original wooden door on the first floor which is still in situ. The barn, in more recent times, has been converted into commercial premises and the current vendors have rented out the barn for over ten years to tenants that have used it for offices, however it does offer so much potential for various different uses subject to planning/change of use. In addition there is a self contained cottage which, according to the vendor, was originally used as a milk parlour and for butter churning and has been converted into a charming one bedroom cottage. There is a long driveway to side which leads to a large garage and range of outbuildings including an indoor swimming pool. The delightful and generous mature gardens are a rather special feature and enjoy a high degree of privacy and seclusion and are principally laid to lawn with a great variety of mature shrubs, bushes, trees and well stocked borders around.
