The accommodation briefly comprises a reception hall with guest cloakroom and internal access to the garage. There are three reception rooms including a study/home office with fitted furniture, formal sitting room with new log burner and bespoke fitted furniture and a separate dining room currently used as a second living room. The breakfast kitchen has a comprehensive range of units with beech preparation surfaces feature professional range cooker and integrated appliances, Amtico flooring and open through into the fitted utility room. Double doors open from the kitchen into a large conservatory with lovely views and French doors into the front and rear gardens.

At first floor level there is a large principal bedroom with en suite shower room, guest bedroom with en suite shower room, two additional bedrooms and a house bathroom. All bedrooms enjoy panoramic views over the open countryside.

The gardens are an attractive feature of Trinity Cottage, principally lawned with mature trees and shrubs, raised beds and a large stone patio providing plenty of space for outdoor dining entertainment. Several greenhouses and outbuildings offer excellent storage and scope for the keen gardener, while the open rural setting provides lovely, uninterrupted views in all directions.

The property benefits from a solar panel and battery system, helping to reduce running costs, along with oil-fired central heating and two hot water systems. The boiler was replaced just over a year ago, the oil tank is around five years old and
the roof was renewed some three years ago. Water is supplied via a private borehole at a current cost of approximately £250 per annum and drainage is to a private septic tank.
