Description

Moss House Farm is an amazing detached country house approached over a long private drive, through electrically operated gates, to a large gravel car parking and turning area. Constructed of brick with rendered elevations beneath a tiled roof, the house is believed to date back to the early 1800's. It is a property that has been comprehensively renovated over the last twelve years and continually invested and enhanced in more recent years.

Moss House Farm is ideal for those families looking for a multi generational living arrangement, a barn with income generating potential, or simply those who want a stunning location and the sense of their own space. With an excellent 5.5 acre field of pasture it would also be ideal for those with equestrian/hobby farming interests or have a love of outdoors and walking.

Moss House Farm is a really well balanced property with a pleasing mix of buildings and land. The house extends to 4,500 square feet and lends itself to multi generational living with seven bedrooms and four bathrooms. At ground floor level there are three large reception rooms, two staircases, two kitchen/breakfast rooms, two utility rooms and two cloakrooms.
