THE PROPERTY Chattan Hall Cottage is a wonderful detached house with origins that date back to the mid-19th century and was formally the Gardners cottage for the Chattan Hall Estate.
During the mid 1990’s the property was beautifully extended and now has exceptionally spacious accommodation which has been recently further enhanced with new windows, doors and a superb kitchen.
The oil centrally heated accommodation has an entrance hall which leads to the bright and spacious triple aspect sitting room with a wood burner and access to the gardens.
There are two further well-proportioned reception rooms which are used as a tv room and a separate dining room.
The kitchen/breakfast room has just been replaced with a beautiful Wrens design with white quartz tops, Belfast sink and a bespoke breakfast bar.
Also, on the ground-floor is a utility room and a modern cloakroom. On the first-floor are the four double bedrooms, three have en-suite showers and the fourth has a wc.

The enclosed southerly facing gardens have formal gardens with a mixture of lawn and shingled areas and a separate paddock that extends to circa 0.5 acres.
