All of the bedrooms are finished with a bright and tasteful natural style. There is a large family bathroom and ample storage space throughout.

Complementing the main residence is a one-bedroom annex, making it ideal for guest accommodation, extended family, or potential rental income. The annex can be accessed from the kitchen in the main house and from a separate external entrance door, providing a ground floor kitchen and living area with double patio doors to the garden. The second floor consists of one bedroom and a modern bathroom. The annex can be self-contained or as an extension to the living in the main house.

Externally, Carr House truly comes into its own. There is a well-maintained south facing lawned garden. The property benefits from a large gravel parking area, range of outbuildings and includes a purpose built kennel block.

The kennel block is a self contained building with kitchen facilities and a WC. This has been built to a high specification. The current vendor has previously run a successful fully licensed boarding kennel business from this building. Additionally, there is an enclosed lawned area to the front of the building. The building has previously had planning permission to be converted into two holiday lets. This has now lapsed and any purchaser would need to make their own enquiries with the local authority.

Within the grounds lies a picturesque, spring-fed pond stocked with fish, adding to the tranquility and lifestyle appeal of the setting. The surrounding land provides ample space for grazing or smallholding use. The land extends to approximately 6 acres.
