• Gardens
  To the rear of the property a pathway and steps lead up to a raised garden, formerly a vegetable garden, this would provide a super private garden area for the barn if required. It is clear that the gardens were once well tended and cared for, there is an abundance of mature shrubs and climbers which with a little loving care could be restored to their former glory. From all aspects the house enjoys wonderful views over surrounding paddocks and woodland and the house has total privacy from the barn. This is a property suitable only for those seeking isolation and a project, the house is habitable however it is envisaged that the private water supply from the well may not be adequate and a borehole a better option. The drainage is to a septic tank, again we envisage this will need replacement. If the house is extended with the current plans it will be an impressive home, well proportioned and practical and perhaps most importantly of all make the most of its stunning location.
  
• The Land
  A paddock extends to the east of the house, following the line of the track. A separate entrance to the paddock could be created at the eastern end from the bottom of the track - this is owned by a neighbouring farmer and The Ridges enjoys a right of way over the track from the lane. The track is approximately .2 mile long. The property stands in approximately 2.5 acres in all.
