4 bedroom detached house for sale

A HOME and BUSINESS OPPORTUNITY!

The house has plenty of off road parking and superb extensive gardens. Adjacent to the main house is a very spacious and well-presented holiday let. This holiday home offers three bedrooms and a large split level living kitchen along with attractive and spacious gardens to the rear.
