Nestled in a private, rural setting, surrounded by fantastic open countryside and breathtaking views is Lower Dayeye Farm, a stunning three-bedroomed period farmhouse that has substantial outbuildings ideal for converting into additional luxurious accommodation. With the added benefit of approximately four and a half acres of land, this beautiful property also has excellent equestrian opportunities.

The well-proportioned and versatile accommodation comprises a reception lobby, principal lounge, sitting room/study, formal dining room, fitted kitchen, utility room/WC, three good-sized bedrooms (the master with fitted wardrobes) plus a luxury four-piece family bathroom. The substantial outbuildings, which are adjacent to the main farmhouse, comprise two large barns, a workshop and a large store, which could be converted to additional luxury accommodation if required. A separate laundry/WC completes the outbuildings. A private driveway leads to a pebbled courtyard that offers extensive parking for several vehicles while formal garden areas comprise areas laid to lawn, stone flagged patios and a hot tub, all taking in awe-inspiring views over the surrounding countryside.
