IMMACULATE SMALLHOLDING

About this property

  • This immaculate smallholding comprises a 3 bed detached farmhouse occupying an elevated site, with breath taking views over the surrounding countryside. The property sits back off the A21 Saintfield road and is approached via a private driveway flanked by traditional stone walls and hedgerow to the left and ranch fencing to the right, leading to an abundance of parking to the front of the dwelling.

    The bright accommodation is laid out over two floors of generous proportions as shown on the accompanying plans. The house has been beautifully designed to take advantage of the spectacular views over the countryside and benefits from an abundance of natural light. The accommodation is laid out over 2 floors and extends to approximately 1,533 sq. ft (142 sq. m). The ground floor comprises a large entrance hall, living area, kitchen, utility, and master bedroom with ensuite. On the first floor, there is the main bathroom along with 2 further bedrooms, both of which benefit from built in wardrobe space.

    Externally the property boasts a considerable garden area to the rear and side of the farmhouse. There is ample yard space to the front of the property, along with two dutch barns currently used for storage but suitable for agricultural use.

    The property further benefits from a former hay barn in which a planning application has been lodged for a change of use to a single dwelling consisting of 3 bedrooms on the upper floor with living, kitchen and ancillary on ground floor under planning reference LA/07/2022/0868/F. Full planning documents and
    drawings can be made available upon request, however please note the sale is not conditional on planning permission being obtained.

    The farmland extends to approximately 8.3 acres (3.36 hectares) and lies in a continuous block surrounding the farmhouse. The land is currently laid in grass and comprises two fields, both of which can be accessed from the yard as well as from the A21 Saintfield road.
