Description - An immaculately-presented, five-bedroom detached property located in a superb and peaceful position with fine views of the surrounding countryside. We understand the property was built by the current owners around 25 years ago and this will be the first time the property has entered the market. The accommodation is deceptively spacious, very versatile and could suit dual occupation. Externally the property benefits a gated driveway, extensive parking, single garage and a private, enclosed garden.
