Rich in original features, including exposed beams and attractive stone walls, the property offers warm and inviting accommodation throughout. An entrance porch leads into a cosy sitting room, complete with a wood-burning stove, while the impressive open-plan kitchen, dining and family room forms the heart of the home.

A study area and practical utility room/cloakroom adds further convenience. Upstairs, there are three generous double bedrooms with built-in storage and a well-appointed family bathroom.

Outside, the mature west-facing garden offers a private and peaceful retreat, ideal for relaxing and entertaining in the evening sun. Part of the garden includes mature apple trees, raised vegetable beds, and well-established fruit planting, creating a productive outdoor space. A large garden shed provides excellent storage for tools and equipment. A standout feature is the Archipod home office, offering a stylish and well-equipped workspace, perfect for remote working, or pursuing creative hobbies.
