Arranged over two floors, the accommodation exudes warmth and character throughout and in brief comprises; A double-glazed enclosed entrance porch with slate flooring and a studded timber door opens to the hall. A delightful dual-aspect sitting room showcases an impressive inglenook fireplace with a heavy beam, inset wood-burning stove on a slate hearth, exposed ceiling timbers, and a door to a second enclosed porch leading to outside.
