Beneath the house, ample storage rooms could be repurposed for utility or service areas or indeed a large family room.

A key feature of the property is the two-floor stone barn adjacent to the main house. This space offers excellent potential for conversion into a guest annex or additional accommodation for the main house as the two buildings could easily be joined together. Combined with the existing structures, this provides plenty of scope for expanding the property into a large family home for multigenerational living, a guesthouse, or rural bed-and-breakfast.
