Hammill Farmhouse & Annexe
Set within approximately 2.67 acres, Hammill Farm offers an early 18th-Century, Grade II Listed country house comprising 7 bedrooms and 6 bathrooms, a large kitchen with staircase to the cellars, and elegant reception rooms for entertaining including a dining room, drawing room, orangery, and a library/ study to the ground floor.
The adjoining, self-contained annexe comprises a reception room, WC and kitchen to the ground floor, in addition to a double bedroom, en-suite bathroom and access to the main house on the first floor.
Both dwellings have been well maintained over the years and are presented in good decorative order throughout; however, they would benefit from sympathetic upgrading.
Gardener's Cottage
In addition to the principal house, there is a separate 2-bedroom detached cottage within the grounds. This offers an opportunity to generate rental income on a short-term or long-term basis, or to be used for staff accommodation or guests.
Gardens & Grounds
