Steeped in character and reflecting the area's rich architectural history, this fine stone built former farmhouse is thought to date back to the mid-1600s. At that time it was two cottages and subsequently substantially extended complementing the original dwelling and converted to form one residence.
It has undergone a meticulous and sympathetic renovation in recent years resulting in an exceptional residence with a wealth of charm and original features uniting the peace and tranquility of the countryside with the demands of modern living. The interior has a feeling of contemporary warmth creating a graceful, relaxed home offering an easy living style with a particular focus on natural light.
Original features including an inglenook fireplace with wood burning stove, flagstone floor, exposed original timbers blend well together with more contemporary additions such as a superb large family kitchen and dining space with vaulted ceiling and well-appointed bathrooms, hand crafted doors and windows all to suit the demands of modern living.
