Sat in just under 2 acres of grounds, this lovely four bedroom detached house is perfect for those that are looking for a prime village location and want a character cottage.
On the plot sits a pole barn,which would be perfect for development and/or equestrian use.
Currently the house sits in mature gardens and is secluded by tree lines. There is then a L-shaped plot that would be perfect for paddocks or a multitude of different uses.
