This property comprises four double bedrooms, two with ensuite shower rooms, family bathroom, spacious open plan living space with multi-fuel burning stove and panoramic views across the delightful undulating surrounding countryside, a further generous open plan kitchen/diner and separate utility room. Externally there is a detached double garage/workshop, summerhouse, sun deck with BBQ area, former farm building offering a range of possible uses (which can be removed free of charge, should it be so desired) and a large paddock.
