This charming Grade II listed stone 'Long House' is situated in a central village location. With a distinctive gable end facing the street, the property is constructed over two storeys, (plus an attic with potential for conversion), in local coarsed ironstone rubble with casement windows and gas fired heating. With scope for refurbishment, this property presents an exciting chance to blend its historic features with contemporary comforts, making it an ideal project for those seeking a home with character in a desirable village setting. The property can be entered from two entrances; one into the entrance hall and the other, into the utility room. Once inside the property offers many charming period features including open fireplaces, wood panelled internal doors and beamed ceilings. The accommodation provides flexibility with two separate reception rooms at opposing ends of the ground floor. The kitchen is fitted with an Aga, (which heats the water and a radiator upstairs), and a range of built-in base level units and two sinks. On the first floor, the landing gives access to three double bedrooms and a family bathroom.

Outside

A private gravelled driveway provides parking for several vehicles. A detached garage of stone construction beneath a pitched roof with double doors, has power and light connected. The beautiful English cottage gardens have been loved and tended over many seasons. Enclosed by walling and principally laid to lawn, the gardens are complemented by several seating areas and extensive borders, stocked with a range of plants, shrubs and trees providing an abundance of seasonal colours.
