Externally, the cottage is constructed of natural stone with hood mould mullion windows whilst internally the accommodation has been meticulously renovated and sympathetically restored in keeping with the listing and the 18th century origin. Attention to detail include insulating the attic ceilings with sheeps' wool and wood-fibre boards which are lime plastered, all modern plaster and plasterboard was replaced with lime-based materials, the external cement-based pointing has been replaced with lime putty mortar, whilst bespoke hand-made iron window casements glazed with conservation glass are complete with bespoke handmade window shutters. Other period features include window seats in every room, exposed timber beams and two coffin hatches which allow furniture to be passed through the floors including to the attic.

On the ground floor, a storm porch opens to an entrance hall with pretty tiled flooring leading to the living room and kitchen both featuring traditional limestone flooring. The electric AGA kitchen/breakfast room has been superbly fitted with handmade bespoke timber units beneath polished Welsh slate worktops and benefits from an integrated fridge, dishwasher and washing machine. The living room features underfloor heating, a multi-fuel burning stove and excellent built-in storage. The original elm staircase leads up to the first floor where there are two double bedrooms and a bathroom fitted with a shower over bath. A further alternating oak step ladder accesses the attic room which provides excellent storage or an ideal hobby room. Views over the village rooftops across to the surrounding countryside can be enjoyed from each floor.
