Set over three floors, the home retains many original elements such as exposed stone walls and wooden beams, all of which could be beautifully highlighted with a fresh renovation. The layout offers versatile living spaces that can be tailored to suit various needs.
On the ground floor, you’ll find two reception rooms along with a vaulted kitchen that benefits from an external door leading directly to the garden. The dining room is equipped with a wood-burning stove, creating a cozy atmosphere, while stairs provide access to additional levels. The first floor hosts two bedrooms both of which showcase open roof spaces adorned with exposed timbers and painted stone walls—ideal for creating inviting retreats.
Descending to the lower ground level, a set of charming stone steps connects you to a hallway that includes two storage cupboards and a well-appointed bathroom featuring a roll-top bath and separate shower. This floor also boasts an oak-framed garden room overlooking the rear garden and a spacious living room with dramatic ceiling height, solid fuel stove, and a mezzanine level that adds further potential for customization.
The outdoor space is another highlight, characterized by established gardens that include lawns, shrub borders, and mature trees. The generous lower garden provides an inviting patio area adjacent to the garden room and features direct access to the brook at its edge. Meanwhile, the upper garden offers additional privacy with its own small seating area off the kitchen and side access to the front of the property.
