Ascending to the second floor, you’ll find bedroom one — a substantial double complete with an en-suite bathroom offering a bath, basin, and WC.

Outside, you’ll find ample off-road parking conveniently situated on a spacious shingle driveway, providing plenty of space for multiple vehicles. The front garden is sizeable and predominantly laid to a well-maintained lawn. You will also find a range of fruit trees here. The garden wraps around the entire property and as you continue to the rear gardens, you will enjoy views over the fields behind as well as an area of lawn to the side aspect and vegetable patches to the rear.
