The property has an attractive look, in solid stone with pan tiled roof, low doors and small windows. It positioned at the end of pathway in a tucked away corner offering privacy and tranquility for residents. Located in the old part of the village and just a short stroll to the village high street.

You walk up a pathway and will find a tall wooden gate which opens to reveal the front garden and pathway that leads to the plaque namesake and wooden front door. Step inside to the hallway and you will spot the wooden winding staircase to the side. Directly in front you enter into the Kitchen/Breakfast room with a door leading into the rear garden, flagstone floors and a large stone fireplace with a big wooden beam. The kitchen has a range of fitted appliances and spaces for others. summer days here cooking with the doors open to the garden eating outside would be wonderful.

A solid wooden floor, a room you can cosy into with a nice cracking fire, good company and a night in.

Back along the hallway is a Bathroom with a three piece white suite. Heading up the stairway leads to a small landing. To either side are the double bedrooms. The main bedroom is spacious and again has a dual aspect, iron fireplace and has horse hair lime plaster that is painted in keeping to how it once was. It worth noting there was an en-suite in the bedroom previously that could be reinstated. The other double bedroom has windows to the front and rear, another quirky shaped room.

Heading outside, the rear garden has a westerly aspect and is surrounded by stone walls and laurel hedgerows, a private place that will be nice to potter in the garden and sit in enjoying the sunsets on an evening. The front garden is larger, fully enclosed with a large pond, and deep filled borders and shrubs trees and flowers. The outbuilding adjoining the cottage has been renovated with plaster board, power and double glazing. These offers a variety of usage options as store, study, utility or even a kitchen maybe if you knocked through from the living room. An exciting option for sure.
