Outside

Pylemoor Manor Farm is approached via a private concrete driveway flanked by attractive stone pillars, leading to a substantial gravelled parking area providing off-road parking for numerous vehicles. A further spur from the driveway leads to an additional hardstanding area situated behind the barn, ideal for trailers, machinery, recreational vehicles or further parking.
The gardens wrap around the property and are predominantly laid to lawn, interspersed with mature trees, shrubs and established hedgerows. Multiple seating areas allow residents to enjoy the stunning countryside views and sunshine throughout the day, whilst a productive vegetable garden provides an excellent opportunity for those wishing to grow their own produce.
The barn and the land

A significant feature of the property is the substantial barn (16m x 5.5m), which benefits from lapsed planning permission (22/01725/full). The planning permission granted the conversion of the stone barn into a four-bedroom dwelling with ancillary car port.
The property's approximately 7 acres of pasture land lie directly adjacent to the house with two gated access points - one of which provides direct access onto the bridleway path. Having been utilised for grazing livestock, the land is ideally suited to those seeking a smallholding, equestrian property or lifestyle home, with scope for a variety of uses subject to any necessary permissions. The property and gardens sit within a plot of about 1.25 acres.
