Leechmore Farm

Originating as a Victorian farmhouse, the property was extensively modernised and extended around 2002 creating a wonderful family home with light accommodation over three floors and modern comforts including double glazing throughout. The reconfiguration results in five spacious bedrooms, along with three bathrooms, generous landings whilst the ground floor has an excellent open plan kitchen/living room, a separate sitting room, a study/snug, a conservatory along with a boot room and utility room.

The extensive range of outbuildings include excellent stabling, stores, a workshop and hay barn, whilst the surrounding paddocks extend to 5.46 acres in addition to which there is an ancient pond, providing a great all round package. An additional field of just under 5 acres just opposite is available as a second lot.

The property is located in an attractive rural position, with no immediate neighbours and superb views over the surrounding countryside as well as having easy access to Newport, as well as the south coast of the Island.
