The property is sold with the benefit of granted planning permission to convert detached barns into two, four bedroomed residential dwellings. This exceptional four bedroomed residence is beautifully appointed for family living, accompanied by the serenity of a rural setting.

Standing on the site of a historic farmhouse, which is believed to date back over 100 years, the property was rebuilt in 2010 to form a liveable dwelling. Fully completed within the last four years by the current owners, Dance Lane Farm provides stunning accommodation that exudes a wealth of character and charm. With under floor heating to two floors and air source heat pumps serving the home, Dance Lane Farm has been cleverly adapted to offer modern conveniences.

Welcoming you into the home is a covered oak stone canopy that juxtaposes the textured stone of the building and has a hardwood glazed door opening to the entrance hall.
