Created from the old Dog pub about 5 years ago, the property has matured beautifully with an inspiring garden created by the current owner, a professional landscape architect. Inside, the house is full of character with original oak beams and polished oak floors, yet is light and airy.

The covered porch with log store leads to the cosy sitting room with inglenook fireplace with seats and wood burning stove. An elegant family room has views to the front. The lovely light kitchen/breakfast room is nearly 30ft long and is well-fitted with an excellent range of colour co-ordinated bespoke wall and floor units with appliances including a wine fridge and larder fridge and freezer.
