The former byre is attached to the main house, and could provide additional accommodation or holiday accommodation to rent.
The gardens include a small and productive vegetable garden behind the house, and the majority of the 38 acres are given over to pasture and trees. The present owners have enjoyed stalking three species of deer: Sika, Red and Roe, while a pond provides duck flighting. The owners have also bred Highland cattle and a small flock of sheep, as well as pedigree pigs.
