The current owners have previously configured the property to create two separate two-bedroom cottages within the main house, alongside the annexe, highlighting the excellent potential for income generation or flexible living arrangements.

Significant improvements have been carried out between 2011 and 2023, including the installation of the agricultural barn, aggricutural shed/ workshop with roller door, a new boiler to the main house, partial replacement windows, and the addition of solar panels, enhancing both efficiency and practicality.
