Of particular note is the oak beam extension to the rear providing a wonderful kitchen/dining/family with French doors leading onto the patio and garden beyond. The reception rooms to the front of the property both have woodburning stoves, exposed brickwork and the continuation of exposed oak beams. One of the reception rooms could be used as a second bedroom. The attic conversion is a triumph providing substantial space at first floor level with fine views across the surrounding countryside.

The values shown against a property can be broken down as follows:
Clear: No bars, no signal predicted
Red: One bar, reliable signal unlikely
Amber: Two bars, may experience problems with connectivity
