Accommodation – An enclosed sun porch overlooks the delightful gardens with a door leading to the living/dining room providing a charming introduction to the original cottage having a beamed inglenook fireplace with a solid fuel Rayburn and a front facing window overlooking the garden.
The separate sitting room also overlooks the garden and has a focal fireplace.

A useful inner hall approached from the living/sitting room provides ample space for coats and boots, a laundry area and access to the lovely dining kitchen which has a vaulted beamed ceiling and triple aspect windows. There is a range of base and eye level units with fitted worktops and an inset sink unit set below one of the windows plus space for appliances.
Completing the ground floor is the spacious dual aspect lounge which includes access to the outside patio, having a focal exposed fireplace to one side with a log burner, beams, a useful under stairs cupboard and stairs rising to the first floor.
The first floor split landing has doors leading to the four good sized bedrooms, three of which can easily accommodate a double bed and furniture, plus a fitted family bathroom which has a four piece suite incorporating both a panelled bath and a separate shower cubicle. The spacious triple aspect master bedroom benefits from an en suite shower room.
Outside – To the front there is a lovely enclosed cottage garden which is predominantly laid to lawn having well stocked beds and borders containing a large variety of shrubs and plants, numerous flower beds plus fruit baring trees and shrubs along with a fertile vegetable garden. A true gardeners paradise which has space for a shed and greenhouse plus a paved patio providing a fabulous seating and entertaining area enjoying a high degree of privacy.
To the side of the property and adjoining in part is a brick built shed which was originally a small milking parlour, in need of some attention but providing potential. Also positioned here is the excellent steel framed shed having both power and light, divided into a useful workshop/store which has a roller door plus a gated livestock shed – providing potential to stabling to be installed. To the rear is a concrete ‘yard’ which has gates leading to the paddocks and steel shed, plus two five bar gates leading to Holly Lane. On the roadside is a block paved hardstanding providing further parking.
The adjoining land extends to approx. 8.6 acres and is currently divided into two interconnected paddocks with independent road access and water troughs.
