Set within a peaceful rural setting, this beautifully renovated period single-storey dwelling has been thoughtfully transformed into an exceptional country home. The current owners have carried out the refurbishment with remarkable care and style, creating a property that blends character, comfort and contemporary design.
At the heart of the home is a superb dual-aspect kitchen/dining room, flooded with natural light and appointed with a stunning fitted kitchen complete with integral appliances.
