This cottage has been carefully extended whilst retaining much of its traditional character and original features, such the impressive inglenook fireplace and substantial stone walls, together with a study, kitchen and sun room the property enjoys three bedroom, as well as a modern shower room.
Whilst inside the property provides ample appeal, the views and land it stands further enhances the attraction. 10.3 acres are occupied under a grazing agreement to December 2023 though it has been indicated that the land could be vacated sooner if required.
The cottage has been carefully modernised in keeping with the original character and now has the benefit of solar panels as well as double glazing and LPG central heating which together with the enclosed wood burning stove in the sitting room help create a warm and welcoming property.
