Space to modernise and re-model with stunning views.
Gale Lodge Farm presents an interesting opportunity to acquire a spacious family property occupying a fantastic rural position with far reaching views.
The property has been in the same family for 40 years and it is fair to say is now in need of comprehensive modernisation. There is plenty of scope to extend or totally re-develop.
The property is approached along a private driveway which leads to the front of the house where there is ample parking and gate through to the former farmyard to the side.
The house is of painted brick construction under a pitch tile roof.
Internally the house is laid out over two storeys with most rooms taking in the views.
There are various features including an open fireplace, exposed timbers and a window seat.
The sitting room particularly has interesting arched windows giving a lovely aspect over the garden.
There is a generous kitchen/breakfast room fitted with a two oven Aga.
Externally, the gardens are extensive and mature and provide a good degree of privacy. Mainly laid to lawn, there is a paved terrace to the rear. Pond. Garden store. In addition to the main gardens, there is a small wooded area and gate leading down to the outbuildings.
Set around the former farmyard is a range of modern outbuildings including two stable blocks of timber construction each with 3 stables and tack/store room; two bay steel frame implement barn; steel and timber frame cattle barns with collection yard; three bay steel portal frame Dutch barn.
Grazing of about 13 acres across three fields which are post and rail and stock proof fenced. There is gated access from the driveway and former farmyard. Water troughs are connected.
In all about 14.5 acres.
This is a unique opportunity to stamp your own mark on what is a fantastic rural setting offering considerable space and privacy, thereby maximising the plot and the setting.
