The surrounding area offers outstanding riding and walking country, with local shops, pubs and community amenities nearby.
Description - Elm Cottage has been meticulously rebuilt and restored throughout, offering the rare combination of period character and a completely modern specification.

The result is a home of exceptional quality, ready for immediate occupation.
Accommodation - The light and spacious living areas flow naturally, with generous reception rooms designed for both family life and entertaining. The new kitchen forms the heart of the home, perfectly balancing contemporary style with everyday practicality. Each of the four bedrooms enjoys lovely countryside views and has been finished to a high standard, while the newly fitted bathrooms complete the sense of luxury and comfort.
