Description
The sale of Stapeley Farm offers Purchasers the rare opportunity to acquire a beautifully presented and well-equipped rural property which is capable of a number of agricultural smallholding, equestrian or diversification uses, owing to the versatile range of outbuildings and manageable area of permanent grassland. Stapeley Farm. It is approached via a gated private driveway off the Council maintained Beaconhill Lane and is surrounded by a beautiful but manageable garden. The house is believed to date back to late-medieval times and has undergone various schemes of extension and alteration in its lifetime, all of which lend to its historic character, making it both architecturally and archaeologically interesting.
