At first floor there are three bedrooms, the master with en-suite, shower room, family bathroom and linhay.

Practical improvements include double glazing, a wood pellet powered boiler for hot water, cooking and central heating, complemented by a solar water heating system.

Outside there is a part block / part timber barn (13.28m x 7.87m) together with a single storey outbuilding (7.22m x 6.23m), currently used as a workshop/studio and has insulated walls together with a PV array, generating electricity aiding the economical running of the house. There is a small shed (formerly housing an electric kiln for pottery) and two further stores for garden equipment, bicycles etc.

The extensive gardens enjoy a bright open aspect with a small orchard to one corner. The gardens open into a slightly sloping paddock approaching 4 acres, which in turn drops down to a steeper section of around 2 acres, which has been planted with young trees. From the paddock the property enjoys the most wonderful views over the beautiful wooded Idless Valley and towards Carland Cross countryside.
