The porchway benefits from tiled flooring, adding further charm and practicality.

External Lifestyle

The grounds extend to just over two acres and offer a superb lifestyle opportunity. The property is approached via driveway parking with a five-bar gate, and there is a courtyard to the rear. Additional parking via further 5 bar gate to one of the paddocks.

A lean-to/sunroom provides a useful additional space, alongside a number of outbuildings including workshop sheds, a greenhouse and stabling.
