The Land
The Field to the West of the property has been used for grazing or dog walking historically. The land is in good order with secure perimeter boundary fencing throughout. Vehicular access is only via Raggithill Farm. The James Hutton Institute classify the land as 3.2 , general soil type of mineral gleys. The land predominantly slopes to the north and undulates to the south.
The Outbuildings
The outbuildings sit in a courtyard formation to the rear of the dwelling house. The serviced kennel building (22.60m x 14.99m) is detached with concrete foundations, brick and steel construction under a metal roof. In addition there is a further kennel block (13.90m x 5.89m) with a concrete floor and timber and brick construction. A further outbuilding of the same construction, sits adjacent and has been used in the past for storage facilities (9.78m x 7.06m) with an adjoining garage (9.80m x 6.58m). To the rear of the courtyard there is a significant commercial greenhouse which has not been in operation for some years and now requires repair.
