About this property
Distinctive detached home with stunning countryside views and no onward chain An attractive four/five-bedroom link-detached period cottage, The Old Piggery offers beautifully presented accommodation extending to approximately 2,387 sq ft, combining an abundance of character with a truly unique design and individual feel. Set within a generous plot and nestled in rolling countryside on the rural edge of Wimbish, this unique home enjoys a peaceful backdrop while remaining highly adaptable for modern living. Originally believed to date back to the late 1940s and formerly a working piggery, the property has since been imaginatively reconfigured into a striking reverse-living home designed to make the most of its superb surroundings, offered to the market with no onward chain.
