Additional Information
This is a beautifully restored and extended stone cottage dating back to the 18th century, in very peaceful countryside with the benefit of a stable yard and around five acres of land. Although we describe it as a cottage, it has been extended into a family home yet retaining the feel of a cottage with many original featues remaining intact. The accommodation is extensive with good sized rooms including beautiful living room with Inglenook fireplace and timber beams, sitting room and wonderful bright country kitchen with sun room adjacent with sliding doors to decking. The master bedroom suite is on the ground floor while upstairs there are three further good sized bedroom, one with en suite and family bathroom.
The gardens are extensive with views of it enjoyed from many of the ground floor rooms.
Just across the road is the stable yard complete with five stables, workshop, garage and the studio. The land runs directly from the yard and is in one field.
