GENERAL COMMENTS

Properties like Trethurffe Hills are almost impossible to find in today's market. Tucked away in a private setting and surrounded by trees and countryside it really is a very special property. Comprising a most attractive detached character cottage, range of traditional outbuildings and with approximately eight acres of land it is a package that is so very rare to find in today's market. The property is in need of total renovation but offers a rare and exciting opportunity to purchase a smallholding on the outskirts of this popular village. The cottage itself comprises three bedrooms and bathroom on the first floor with kitchen/breakfast room and two reception rooms downstairs. The majority of the land is located behind the cottage and comprises several paddocks, woodland and water leat which is a lovely feature. On the opposite side of the lane is a range of traditional farm buildings which offers tremendous potential for conversion subject to gaining the necessary consent together with a one acre level paddock.
