The annexe could be updated to a studio bedsit, which would be ideal for families with older children, visiting guests, or those requiring a home office.

According to the estate agent: "The beautifully stocked private gardens are a real highlight, featuring a quality greenhouse, a covered seating area, and a pond with the original well beneath.

"Unique heritage touches, including the former pig pen and separate bread oven, add charm and authenticity."
