Constructed of local limestone, beneath a Collyweston slate roof, this delightful stone cottage dates from the late 1600s and is Listed Grade II. The property has been renovated in recent years, affording modern and convenient living, whilst retaining much of its original charm and character. A shared passageway leads off the street, down to the oak main entrance door. This opens to the beautiful dining kitchen, which offers ample space for family mealtimes or more formal occasions. The kitchen is fitted with traditional, shaker style painted furniture with hardwood work surfaces with inset Belfast sink. A range cooker stands to one side and has an extractor hood above. The dishwasher and washing machine are built in. A stable door opens to the garden.

The characterful and atmospheric living room is wonderful. The open fireplace with heavy mantle, makes a cosy focal point, with warmth being added by the rich, timber floor. A door opens to a useful understairs storage cupboard.
The first floor offers two bedrooms. The principal bedroom is a great size and has a stripped pine floor and a spine beam, giving character. The window to the front has a seat beneath. Along the landing is a well-appointed bathroom with a traditional styled suite including a roll-top bath with pillar tap and shower attachment with the addition of a newly fitted corner shower unit. Beyond is the third bedroom, which offers superb, built-in storage. Stairs rise from the landing to the second bedroom, which is a comfortable, characterful double room, with exposed, heavy joinery.

Outside, the house enjoys a west-facing garden with a lower patio, a lawn and then a second patio, each set to capture the sunshine throughout the day. A shed stands to the rear.
