2 Bed Detached House For Sale

An appealing semi detached stone cottage situated on the fringe of the popular and well served village of Marnhull which offers day to day facilities including butchers, hairdresser, convenience stores, doctors' surgery with pharmacy and choice of public houses. We believe that the property dates to the 1830's and at one time the row of cottages were owned by the same family, this particular cottage has been home to our sellers for the last seven years. A viewing is definitely a must to truly appreciate just how this home suits a variety of criteria - from full time main home, weekend retreat or an Air B+B.
