Description
Mid Victorian farmhouse with lots land and forestry. Also a few workshops where I manufacture garden furniture, repair old lamps, do rentals and tend to young forestry. Charming place to live and work. Pressure and stress free!
Plenty of time to see the beauties of nature, ponder the mysteries of the universe and drink cheap wine.
