Th principal bedroom has built in wardrobes and french doors to the garden, and an ensuite bathroom. There are two further double bedrooms, one with a mezzanine floor, and a family bathroom.
The Milk House has a modern eco-friendly approach with roof mounted solar panels and air source heat pump which provide underfloor heating throughout.

The property is approached via an electric gate leading to a gravelled driveway with access to a useful workshop and storeroom (currently used as a studio). There is a south facing paved patio which spans the width of the rear of the property with the addition of a pergola adjacent to the kitchen. There are far reaching views across the remainder of the garden, which has been landscaped and gently tiered with steps down. The rear boundary extends down to a wild garden area bordered by trees.

The properties extend to 1.46 acres (0.59ha) and 0.79 acres (0.31ha) respectively and 2.25 acres (0.91 ha) as a whole.
