These are complemented a very recently installed air source heat pump, solar panels, a Solar Edge battery and a 210ltr Eddi water cylinder, all reducing running costs for the property to zero in the summer months. Cast iron radiators, a very well-appointed kitchen and excellent bath and shower rooms complete the this exceptionally appealing property.

The kitchen area is classically charming, with handmade, solid, painted, timber floor and wall units, granite and timber worktop and breakfast bar, Belfast sink, tiled splashbacks and an attractive and a practical, electric Aga with extractor canopy is a focal point.
 
In the dining area there is plenty of space for the table and chairs and French doors lead out to the garden.
