Property Overview - The property, believed to have been originally built in the 1970's, was previously the home to the acclaimed local cabinet maker Albert 'Eagleman' Jeffrey who used the outbuilding as his workshop.

Externally the 1,790 sq ft outbuilding currently provides stabling, a studio/workshop and a home office although should be noted that planning permission was granted in 2017 (now lapsed) for "conversion of stable and office to form a dormer bungalow".
