Formerly two separate houses the property has been substantially and tastefully improved over the years to provide a single and remarkably spacious home. Listed Grade II the property is almost detached being linked at first floor level with one neighbour. The accommodation is enhanced by remarkably high ceilings for the period of the property and is well-lit by large double glazed windows on two elevations. Fine features include two impressive inglenook style fireplaces, a wealth of oak beams and generous first floor accommodation approached by oak staircases at each end of the property. The lovely walled garden at the rear is attractively arranged and provides a colourful setting throughout much of the year and a high degree of sunshine particularly through the afternoon. Only an internal inspection will convey the high merit of this impressive property. No onward chain.
