Meadow View Cottage - Set back from the road and accessed by a long, shared driveway with paddocks to either side, the cottage forms part of a conversion of the former farm steading and enjoys an almost directly south-facing aspect with views across to your own paddock to the front of the property.

The lifestyle elements of Meadow View Cottage will surely appeal to those who wish to keep livestock or simply those seeking space for the whole family to enjoy. The paddock benefits from a substantial set of versatile timber stables, suitable for a variety of uses. There is also a summerhouse which is currently set up as a bar with a composite decking terrace at which to sit and while away the hours.

The accommodation is laid out to benefit from the outlook over the paddock with a large conservatory across the width of the property, benefitting from an electric canopy above and fitted blinds for comfort on those warm summer days.

The kitchen and dining area are adjacent to each other, forming an open-plan space with under-floor electric heating, to enjoy with friends and family. The large living room has a central character fireplace with a multi-fuel stove, perfect for a cosy evening or movie night.

The ground floor bedroom offers flexibility, with the ground floor family bathroom situated next door. The rear lobby has space to keep muddy boots, coats and utilities neatly out of the way whilst storage is catered for with a large cupboard and a wonderful loft area accessed via a drop-down ladder in the kitchen.

The first floor has two double bedrooms and a further single bedroom or study. The principal bedroom enjoys a superb vista towards the paddock and over the countryside beyond and an en suite shower room.

Gardens And Grounds - Externally, there is stabling and paddocks for those with equine or livestock interests along with several areas in which to relax. The timber summerhouse with electrics is currently laid out as a bar and benefits from a wraparound decking area: a superb spot to sit and reflect in private.

The shared driveway from the road meanders down to the former farmstead and splits off to each individual property.
