Occupying a peaceful setting at the end of a long driveway with lovely views over the surrounding countryside, Greencroft Farm is a versatile well-proportioned family home suitable for multi-generational living and home working. The property is not historically listed.

Set behind a walled boundary and electric gates to the front, the driveway runs past the garden in front of the house and the granary to a courtyard of redundant original agricultural buildings (single storey brick and concrete block construction) that includes garaging for several cars.

On the whole, the house has been very well maintained and is in good condition however, the snooker room would benefit from some updating.

The Granary
Adjacent to the house the former granary has been recently modernised to create a superb totally independent 2 double bedroom cottage.

To the rear of the house, the garden leads into what remains of an original orchard and then into the field. The field can be retained by the sellers should an incoming purchaser not want or need the grazing.

Services: Private waste. Oil fired central heating. Mains water and electricity.
