Positioned in the heart of this picturesque village, the property displays a striking Gothic-inspired architectural style and holds an important place within the village’s heritage, originally forming part of the Erlestoke estate cottages.

The outdoor area is well-arranged with a paved patio for alfresco dining, a detached single garage, and a separate outbuilding that provides substantial storage or workshop potential.
