The land slopes away gently from the property, with an immediate garden area located in front of the house offering a seasonal display thanks to a carefully chosen selection of plants, shrubs, and bushes. A further area of garden is laid to lawn.

To the side of the property there is a stone barn which is the original building dating from the 1880’s. With a slate roof and stone walls with window slits, this is a very attractive building which benefits from two purpose-built stables and is currently compartmentalised to provide an excellent storage and work area. As well as being suitable for livestock, the barn is alternatively ripe for conversion and could make either one or two self-contained holiday apartments: or a lovely single annexe to the house for further accommodation.

At the bottom of the garden, an attractive stone-built bothy is in need of repair and is presently unused. This building also offers further opportunity for those looking to develop holiday let accommodation, subject to the necessary planning consents.
