Manor Farm Cottage is set back from the road, and is accessed through the farm yard. The front elevation has views over the fields in front of the house, and the rear of the house looks on to the farm yard. Ample parking is available. The cottage is adjoined to the farm buildings and garages, which offer the opportunity for further extension. The house is in working order but would benefit from further modernisation and improvement.
The front door opens into a hallway and washroom. Off this entrance hall is a door to the very comfortable snug and another door to the open plan kitchen-diner. Adjoining the kitchen is a south-east facing conservatory, which also serves as the main entrance from the farmyard. The kitchen leads through to the large sitting room and staircase leading to the first floor. Both the snug and sitting room benefit from recently installed log burners.
Upstairs, there are three well-proportioned bedrooms and a family bathroom. Built in wardrobes in two of the double bedrooms offer
additional storage. To the front of the house is a large and well maintained garden including features such as a gravel path and fish pond.
Farm Buildings
Manor Farm has an extensive range of characterful traditional buildings, along with modern portal framed buildings. The farm buildings are circa 30,921sqft of gross external area. The traditional buildings include a granary and cart shed which have been maintained in good order to preserve their original features.
The farm yard offers extensive potential for re-development into further residential accommodation, equestrian facilities or light commercial premises, subject to planning permission being sought.
The farm buildings include a large two-storey red brick granary with slate roof; stone building under a pantile roof with character features including beams and a fireplace; portal framed dutch barns, six block built stables; former cart sheds and a large enclosed portal framed building.

The land in Lot 1 comprises approximately 12.89 acres (5.22 hectares) of permanent pasture that wraps around the house and farm yard on three sides. Adjacent to the farm yard is a floodlit manège measuring 40m x 20m. The surface on the manège is silicone sand and carpet, installed in 2015.
The paddocks are accessed either through the farm yard or through a separate gateway that adjoins Ravenstone Lane. The land is serviced by various water troughs, and divided into smaller paddocks by a combination of post and rail fencing, electric fencing on wooden posts and
stock proof fencing.
