THE PROPERTY

Originally dating back to the 1800s, this beautifully converted home seamlessly blends historic charm with modern living. The striking exterior features traditional slate-hung elevations, complemented by stone and granite detailing that reflect its heritage.

Spanning over 1,100 sq ft, the property features a spacious kitchen/diner ideal for entertaining, a separate sitting room with wood burner, a utility room, and a cloakroom/WC on the ground floor. Upstairs are three generously sized double bedrooms, each with fitted wardrobes and en-suite shower rooms. Further features include gas central heating, double glazing throughout, and a private driveway to the rear. The enclosed front garden is laid to lawn with stone walling, while the private rear courtyard is paved. Offered with no onward chain and vacant possession, this home presents an ideal residential purchase or investment opportunity.
