Property description
Summary
We believe Higher Den House was built in the early nineteeth century and is a traditional style property. Offering spacious family living accommodation throughout with many original features still retained that provides a wealth of charm and character. The farmhouse has been lovingly improved and maintained yet still has some potential for further enhancement. In addition there is an opportunity to potentially convert the former dairy into on office or annexe subject to the relevant planning permission being obtained.
The property is pleasantly situated on a good sized plot with far reaching, stunning views over open countryside.
Whilst described in greater detail below, the accommodation which is arranged over three floors briefly comprises of an entrance hall, lounge, dining room, kitchen, snug, bathroom and utility to the ground floor and basement cellar, whilst at first floor level there are four bedrooms and to the second floor are three further bedrooms and a shower room. Externally there is a decorative stone chipped driveway providing parking along with a substantial garden with well established borders and vegetable garden. There are also some outbuildings providing a good amount of storage space along with a former dairy which could potentially offer an opportunity to make it an office or annexe subject to correct planning being obtained.
