Originally two cottages, this striking family home, with origins dating back approximately 400 years offers an excellent range of accommodation and boasts an abundance of character features throughout that include old ship timbers, original brick flooring and wall panelling and several fireplaces each with their own wood burner. On the ground floor, there is a dining room with an impressive Inglenook fireplace and a charming kitchen/breakfast room with double aspect as well as a delightful drawing room which is part of an extension that the current owners created fifteen years ago. The remaining rooms on this floor are a welcoming reception hall, study, utility room and shower room with WC. 

On the first floor there are five bedrooms, four of which are of double proportions and each feature attractive fireplaces. The master bedroom includes an en suite shower room and there is also a family bathroom.  

Externally, the grounds surrounding the property are almost entirely laid to lawn therefore offering a great feeling of space with panoramic views across the surrounding countryside. Within the grounds there is a substantial thatched outbuilding with separate access that provides scope, subject to the relevant planning consents to develop into a home office or annexe.   To the rear, a paved terrace is the ideal spot for al fresco dining and entertaining or simply a place to sit and take in the stunning views. Ample parking can be found adjacent to the property.
