Directions
The property has not been offered to the market for some 40 years.

In an elevated position with far reaching views out to the coast, this property has been a very much loved family home.

A private road leads up to the property where you are met by two gates. One gate leads to the cottage which is the first property you see, this is attached to the main farmhouse. The second gate leads through to the larger yard area and to the main farmhouse and detached barn beyond. There is plenty of space for parking and the immediate yard area is surrounded by a stone wall, from here you can see a walled cottage garden, attractive mature trees and a beck working its way through the plot creating a wonderful setting for this fantastic home.

The farmhouse is entered through a substantial front door which opens into the hall. The dining kitchen is where most of the day to day living takes place with views to both the front and rear of the property. There is a point for a cooker and a range of units along with a sink and drainer, the floor is stone flagged. A spacious shelved pantry is also provided.

The study/parlour is found at the rear of the property and offers views out to the countryside beyond. An open fire is set in a fireplace giving a cosy focal point to the room.

A further living room is included which has views to both the front and rear of the property and includes a woodburning stove set in a stone surround, again providing a lovely focal point to the room.

A WC is also provided and access to the front from a separate hall. From the utility / reception room a staircase rises up to the first floor leading through to another reception / bedroom, offering views to the rear and side of the property. This area has great annex potential subject to alteration.
