About this property

  • Buchanan Home Farm has been thoughtfully and expertly restored and updated by the present owners. Believed to date from around 1780, the home has been lovingly upgraded for modern family living whilst keeping its external period character.

    A gravel driveway leads up to the front door which opens into the entrance hallway. To the left is the living accommodation, all of which benefits from windows to the front overlooking the garden and beyond. The sitting room is well proportioned and leads through to the good sized dining room/family room with access to a loft area, and again with views over the garden. Off here is the spacious kitchen which is light and bright thanks to dual aspect windows to the front and side. Immaculately fitted with white cabinets it has a dark green range cooker, porcelain Belfast sink and plenty of room for a breakfast table. There is also a door out to the garden. To the right of the reception hallway is a generous downstairs double bedroom along with a contemporary shower room, with a rear hallway/utility area with boiler completing the ground floor.

    A fine staircase curves up to the first floor where there are two bedrooms, one with an en suite tiled bathroom. Further stairs lead to the upper floor with a study area on the landing, fourth bedroom and modern shower room.

    The gardens and grounds extend to around 1.2 acres with the gravel driveway providing parking for several cars. The garden is mostly down to lawn for ease of maintenance.
