The accommodation extends to some 934 sq.ft including two reception rooms, three bedrooms, kitchen and bathroom. The land comprises a large paddock, a gently sloping lawn to the front and productive kitchen gardens. There are various outbuildings including two stables which have been enclosed by a large 32ftx51ft barn addition. There is a vehicular right of way to access the barn/stabling at the rear whilst a private driveway to the cottage provides off-street parking. The single garage has power which the barn also feeds off. There are various timber sheds to the rear of the cottage.
