Red Robin Farm

Red Robin Farm was built in 1985 by the parents of the current owners. The property was substantially extended in 2004 to provide additional accommodation to allow for the multi generational living of two families side by side. The current layout of the property, with each part having independent access, their own kitchens, reception rooms, bedrooms and bathrooms, means that the property could be used in this way again. Alternatively the layout could be easily amended into one larger house, with a number of the smaller rooms being used to create larger ones. The extension was designed and built to make conversion into one house as simple as possible. It should be noted that it was a condition of the planning in 2004 that the property itself could not be split into two separate residential dwellings.
