Unlisted and of period origins, Shreen Hayes was originally three workers cottages dating from the early 19th century that were subsequently converted into one. Around 1976, the kitchen extension was added which has significantly improved the scope of the accommodation. Constructed with stone and part rendered elevations under a slate pitch roof, Shreen Hayes now has sensibly configured accommodation with nicely proportioned rooms; both the sitting room and kitchen/breakfast rooms have French windows opening onto the rear garden terrace, whilst upstairs there are three double bedrooms with two bath/shower rooms (one en-suite). Other attributes include direct pressure plumbing system, a gas combi boiler (newly installed in 2023), a Rangemaster gas cooker and laundry facility on the first floor.
OUTSIDE
Shreen Hayes is approached off Water Street onto a gravelled shared driveway which leads to the car port with adjoining store/workshop and a timber summer house. The garden lies to the rear of Shreen Hayes; there is an attractive stone and slate paved terrace running the width of the rear facade accessed through French doors in both the sitting room and the kitchen/breakfast room. From there steps lead to the rear garden which is to lawn with a paved path leading up to the summer house. On the right of the steps there is an additional gravel area with a circular lavender bed with a Judas tree; a mixture of tall evergreen and beech hedging on both sides of the garden screens the garden.
