About

It now offers a spacious home with flexible accommodation including bedroom and living accommodation on each floor, making it easily adaptable for multi-generational living.

Outside, there are gardens with lawn and a large decked entertaining area, an impressive oversized detached double garage building, parking for several vehicles and an adjoining paddock of around 0.76 of an acre (as measured on Promap) - perfect for running a few sheep or a horse/ponies and with a two modern timber stables.
