There is also a rear entrance with a utility area, WC and storage. Upstairs, there are two double bedrooms, a good size single bedroom and the house bathroom.

A cottage comprises a dining kitchen and a cosy living room with a multi fuel stove. Upstairs there are two double bedrooms and a shower room. The cottage would make ideal overflow accommodation to the main house, a separate dwelling for dependant relatives or could be returned to a successful holiday let.

Outside, there is off street parking for multiple cars, as well as a covered yard area ideal for storage. There is also a small outbuilding that houses the oil tank and currently used as a workshop.

Attached to the cottage, is a barn currently used as a utility room and storage. With the correct permissions this could be converted as an additional living accommodation.

Leading to the rear, reveals a beautiful secret garden which consists of a vegetable patch, flower beds and mature trees. There is a lovely summer house with electric to enjoy this peaceful garden all year round.
