Dating from the mid-18th century the property retains a wealth of period features including high gables, coped chimneys, and traditional stonework. Sympathetically extended with a modern south-facing conservatory, the house offers generous and flexible accommodation across multiple levels. While internally dated in places, the house is entirely serviceable and ready for a new chapter.
