Upon entering the property, the front door opens into a spacious sitting room, with a window to the front aspect and a large stone fireplace providing a charming focal point. An opening leads through to the dining room, which is filled with natural light thanks to its dual-aspect windows. The kitchen lies beyond and is fitted with a selection of built-in cupboards and units, along with an inset sink. While functional, this space offers scope for modernisation. An inner hallway provides convenient side access to the property and leads to the three bedrooms—two of which include built-in wardrobes, offering useful storage. The bathroom has been recently refurbished, featuring a contemporary walk-in shower, separate bath, and washbasin. A separate WC is located adjacent.

The workshop is in a slightly dilapidated condition but offers great opportunity for improvement. The woodland is a great space for those who enjoy wildlife and nature.
