Made to feel even more private, due to the mature trees and fencing, limiting visibility from beyond.

Land:
Doctors Hill Farm has primarily been used as pasture land for grazing. The fields provide a terrific opportunity for a single or low density residential development opportunity (STP) that would be in keeping with the vernacular typical to the local area. If applicable, the land could be suited to multiple environmental projects, such as rewilding and tree planting. The current owners have continuously farmed the land as custodians with environmental objectives and targets in mind.
Doctors Hill Farm is a terrific opportunity for someone looking to get into farming. Subject to planning the land could provide an opportunity for a single or low density residential development scheme.
