Amenities aplenty
The present owner’s family purchased the estate in 1993 and have carried out a significant programme of renovation and redecoration to the house, cottages and outbuildings. A stud farm was previously run at Moyview by the family.
The farmland, which is presently all in grass with extensive road frontage on the eastern side and good internal farm roads, is let on a conacre basis to a number of local farmers for silage and grazing.
The ploughable pasture lies within a ring-fenced block and is generally level, with a gentle westerly elevation and rises from the estuary on the west to about 26m (85ft) on the south-easterly corner.
There is a mains water supply to the land and electric fencing.
The land can be classified as follows:
- Ploughable pasture/silage ground: 120ac;
- Woods: 1ac;
- Miscellaneous: 10ac.
A range of outbuildings are situated to the south of the main house. There is a combination of traditional and modern construction, which provide accommodation for livestock and general-purpose storage.
The farmyard is accessed off the main driveway and also has a separate farm access from the main road.
The yard comprises:
- A general purpose shed;
- A hanger;
- Stables;
- A cattle shed; and
- Kennels.
A feature of the farmyard is the ample area of hard-standing. As well as all this, there is a diesel generator present.
An abundance of accommodation
The house is approached through a bell-mouthed stone wall with piers and electrically operated, wrought iron gates, which open to an attractive sweeping tarmacadam driveway, flanked by terraced lawns and leading to parking at the front of the house.
The accommodation is laid over two floors, including: four reception rooms; a conservatory; three bedroom suites; a master bedroom with en-suite; a swimming pool complex; a two-bedroom mews cottage; multiple storage areas; and two garages which are separated by a two-storey tower.
Furthermore, there is a single-storey cottage, with three bedrooms; a two-storey gate lodge with three bedrooms; and a derelict, single-storey former gate lodge.
