The property offers expansive accommodation of over 2,500 sq. ft., with a self-contained annex beautifully balancing charm with modern comfort with foundation for outstanding potential development if desired.

The ground floor boasts multiple generous living spaces, including an expansive lounge with a vaulted ceiling and wood burner, large living room, spacious bedroom, a versatile study, shower room and a well-appointed kitchen. Upstairs, two further double bedrooms and a contemporary family bathroom provide comfortable and private space for the rest of the household.

The self-contained annex has an additional lobby with a utility area and a stunning adaptable open-plan kitchen/lounge/games room (with option of an additional modern pedestal woodburning stove to complement electrical storage heaters). There is a sizeable bedroom and bathroom. Additionally there is a large loft with bespoke designed attic truss and flooring offering the potential to create (subject to the usual planning consent) extensive additional accommodation if required.
