Originally constructed in the 18th century, the cottage was once three separate homes and now offers nearly 1,300 sq. ft (120 sqm) of living space.

The first floor features two good-sized double bedrooms along with a bathroom.
The exterior boasts a delightful rear garden that is fully enclosed and features well-stocked borders filled with established plants and shrubs. The central grassy area allows for low-maintenance enjoyment of outdoor space. Although there is no dedicated parking, unrestricted options are available directly beside the property and along Fore Street.
