Seller Insight
This house has been a very happy family home for over twenty-five years now. Although the house was a bit run down when it was first purchased it was the potential of the house that appealed to our parents.
Over the years the house has been extended and renovated and the outbuilding was converted to create self-contained annexes, which meant that as grew up we were able to have our own space.
More recently though the annexes were used to provide a thriving B&B business, it was a roaring success, but the outbuilding could easily be converted into a separate house, subject to any planning permissions. Making it ideal for multi-generational families that wish to live together but still retain some privacy and independence.
