* A welcoming entrance hall leads through to the country-style kitchen/breakfast room, with its attractive painted cupboards and solid oak work surfaces. There is an electric Aga and space for a dishwasher and fridge-freezer. The downstairs WC has been cleverly designed to create space for a washing machine. * A spacious family/dining room leads straight off the kitchen and is complemented by engineered oak flooring and is a great space for both family time and socialising. A single French door leads directly out to the garden. * Stairs lead up to a light galleried landing and the spacious sitting room with Clearview wood burner set upon an attractive, reclaimed Welsh slate hearth. This delightful room is ideally situated to make the most of the views over the adjoining pastureland.
