East Nerston Steading Plan

Lot 1: East Nerston Farmhouse, Steading and 10.8 acres The stone built farmhouse extends to 4 bedrooms, livingroom, kitchen, bathroom and a box room, ideally suited to being a home office. To the front is a spacious garden, mainly laid down to lawn with well maintained borders. The front porch leads into the main hall which accesses the livingroom, third bedroom and bathroom. Upstairs is the master bedroom which is a bright room, overlooking both the garden and the steading. The second bedroom is across the landing and has the same outlook. The livingroom is the focal point of the house with an open fire and a large window out to the garden with a second window on to the courtyard to the rear. The livingroom also leads on to the rear corridor, with access to the 4th bedroom and kitchen. The kitchen has a small dining area and includes a Rayburn range cooker. Adjoining the kitchen is a useful storage cupboard with loft access, with the backdoor adjacent. The property is fully double glazed with oil central heating.

The farmhouse is shown marked building 1 on the steading plan.

The steading includes a former stable, garage and byre which adjoin the farmhouse as well as a small range of buildings across the courtyard and two open fronted pole barns. The farmhouse and steading are focussed around the rear courtyard which also provides access to the land. www.drrural.co.uk @drrural @DR_Rural Offices across Scotland and Northern England

2 – Stable & Garage Former stable with 2 stable boxes and cobbled floor, currently used as a general store. Adjoining garage converted from part of the steading, is large enough for single car and further storage space.

3 – Byre Large former byre including 8 stalls with concreted floor with central passage and sliding door at either end offering excellent access. Water and electricity supplies installed. Could be adapted for equestrian, small livestock use or small machinery shed.

4 – Tool Shed & Milk Shed Across the courtyard from the farmhouse is a range of 3 buildings. The Tool and Milk Shed are the smaller two, offering useful storage space for small gardening tools and implements.

5 – Stick Shed Adjoining the Tool Shed and Milk Shed is the larger Stick Shed. It is currently used for storage of coal and firewood but could be amended for a variety other uses, with a sliding door opening into the courtyard and electricity installed.

6 – Pole Barn Situated in the small paddock to the rear of the steading, the pole barn could be utilised for storage of hay or straw or for shelter for horses or livestock.

7 – Pole Barn & Garden Shed Adjacent to the garden shed and located in the garden area to the rear of the kitchen, these sheds have been used for garden implements and general storage.

The steading at East Nerston Farm has the potential for change of use and development or to provide diversification opportunities, subject to the necessary consents being obtained.

The land with lot 1 extends to 10.8 acres and comprises a small paddock to the rear of the steading and two further fields. All the land is well fenced and in good heart with access direct from the steading. Currently the land is grazed by ewes and lambs as a block however it offers the potential for further subdivision for small scale mob grazing or to rest paddocks.

The internal boundary is interspersed with trees and established hedge plants which offer shelter to stock and add to the amenity of the property. There is a single gate between the fields at the north of the internal fence and a double gate, suitable for machinery, at the south. The land is watered by a small burn which flows through the fields along the southern boundary as well as a water trough located adjacent to the double gate. The trough is located so as to provide water to stock in both fields so they can be separately grazed. Offices across Scotland and Northern England @drrural @DR_Rural www.drrural.co.uk

Lot 2: 8.25 acres of land to the north of Crookedshields Road To the north of Crookedshields Road lies a single field extending to 8.25 acres or thereby. The land is well fenced and has been farmed as part of the smallholding, with a roadside gate opposite to East Nerston Farm and provision of water for livestock in the field.

The field is located on the edge of village development boundary to the west and residential properties to the east and therefore there is the potential for longer-term development prospects due to its location within Nerston Village.
