At the heart of the property lies a charming traditional farmhouse positioned on circa 5.5 acres. Accessed via a private track from the main road, the home enjoys total privacy, surrounded by unspoiled nature and is bordered by streams on three sides. Adjacent to the farmhouse is a series of characterful stone outbuildings offering excellent potential for conversion or redevelopment. The natural beauty of this holding is exceptional. There is a pond with waterfalls beneath a rocky cliff. Nearby a spring-fed lake flows over rock into a lower pond, home to small brown trout, adding to its ecological charm.
