TREDEAN FARMHOUSE
Accessed from the north side of the Wolvesnewton road, the entrance drive sweeps down through the grounds with pasture fields flanking the drive, leading to the yard area with ample parking and the impressive Tredean Farmhouse. The farmhouse is an impressive country house, with dressed stone and rendered elevations under pitched slate tiled roof.

The property comprises a traditional residential dwelling house with beautiful character which has the potential to be modernised, extended and renovated to provide for a modern rural residence. Adjacent to the rear door is an external cloakroom with wc. The rear door then opens into the old kitchen with Rayburn and carpeted floor. Adjacent to this is the second kitchen fitted with base units with composite worktop metal sink and standalone electric oven and hob. Accessed from the front of the old kitchen is the old parlour used as a spacious utility room. Next is the sitting room which can be accessed from the old kitchen and the utility. The sitting room benefits from front aspect windows with shutters, feature fi replace, half panelled walls and carpeted floor. A door from the sitting room opens out into the front hallway. On the far side of the hallway is a drawing room with carpeted floor, dual aspect windows with shutters to the front and side and a feature fi replace. Next is the impressive dining room with side aspect window and external door featuring traditional woodwork, carpeted floor and stairs to the first floor.

A family Bathroom with bath, wc and wash basin completes the first-floor accommodation.

TRADITIONAL BARNS, OUTBUILDINGS AND YARD
The farmstead comprises of a series of steel framed covered yard buildings, part covering the traditional buildings which include a former parlour building and dairy, traditional byre/range and a traditional stone & tiled granary barn. The granary barn previously benefitted from planning permission for conversion to a three-bedroom residential dwelling which has since lapsed. Given the excellent integrity of the barn, a new consent should be able to be secured upon this barn, subject to all the necessary technical work being commissioned for submission with a fresh planning application. An additional traditional stone barn is positioned set away above the granary barn which may also have potential for conversion subject to gaining the necessary planning consents.

Positioned above the farmhouse is an extended Dutch barn building that offers a useful machinery/implement storage, along with a dilapidated poultry building that provides for a footprint for further expansion.

All the outbuildings are in good condition with the stone barns providing scope for change of use and conversion to residential subject to obtaining the necessary planning permissions.
