Description

The property comprises a pair of semi-detached cottages in an idyllic setting with two further outbuildings with potential and extensive garden space. The whole property is in need of complete renovation and represents an increasingly rare opportunity to create a unique country property. The layout currently suits use as a home with adjoining holiday let or multi-generational living however we also envisage that a buyer may seek to incorporate the two cottages to create one fabulous home.

The residential element is known as Lanjore Farm Cottage and East Glasdon - the two properties total about 1346 sq ft and comprise as follows -

Lanjore Farm Cottage - About 875 sq ft - ground floor - Porch - Reception Hall - 13' Sitting Room - 13' Kitchen/Dining Room - Bathroom (no bath) - first floor - 2 Double Bedrooms - Shower Room/WC.

East Glasdon - About 471 sq ft - ground floor - 11' Kitchen/Dining Room - 11' Sitting Room - first floor - 2 Bedrooms.

Outside

The property is approached over a long drive (in seperate ownership but with right of way over and maintenance contribution according to user), this in turn leads to a private drive way leading to an ample parking/turning area for many cars.

The buildings are set around a quaint courtyard with outbuildings including a traditional barn 30'4"' x 14'1" - formerly a two storey building and without a roof, this building has potential subject to any consents that may be required and has a leanto measuring 11'1 x 8'7" with a total footprint of 519 sq ft and potential to create 939 sq ft assuming two storey - also a two storey stone building (on floorplan) the ground floor of which formed the bathroom for East Glasdon Cottage.

There is a small paddock, a small area of natural broadleaf woodland and uncultivated garden with the whole having immense potential for a creative gardener to create a fascinating landscaped environment in a natural unspoilt setting which is host to an abundance of flora and fauna. The whole extends to about 0.59 acre.
