Parcel of gently sloping pasture land (Lot 3) with established boundaries and internal post and rail fence. The land immediately adjoins both the House (Lot 1) and the agricultural buildings (Lot 2) and so could be purchased to adjoin and combine with either of these Lots.

LOT 2 : Neither of the Class Q Residential Conversions have an Occupancy Condition and so there is no restriction as to who can live in these dwellings.
