“We have lived here for 20 years and came by it through a friend who moved into an adjoining property to retire into. The property was ideal to run a hobby farm and mostly a business with a large modern barn to store plant hire and building equipment and also had a joinery workshop with potbellied stove.

“The property was built approximately 1600 and originally was a small cottage with an adjoining. We converted these into two dwellings, with lovely beamed ceilings upstairs and extensive stonework throughout. Our favourite room is the master bedroom which has exposed stonework and beamed ceiling, where the views stretch down the aire valley and up the worth valley.”
