Property description

House

Ground floor

The front door opens to the entrance hall (9 sq m) with tiled floor and exposed stone walls. To the right of the hall a door opens to the living room (34 sq m) with tiled floor, exposed beam ceiling, large fireplace and a part-glazed door to the front courtyard garden. To the rear of the kitchen a door opens to a hallway which in addition to providing useful storage space, also provides access to the rear courtyard garden.

To the left of the entrance hall a door opens to the bathroom (bath, wash-basin, WC and bidet).

First floor

A staircase rises from the rear of the entrance hall to the first floor landing. To the right a door opens to a bedroom (8 sq m). To the left of the landing a door opens to a suite of two bedrooms (18 sq m and 25 sq m - one leading to the other). Both rooms have wooden floors and the larger of the two has a very pretty stone fireplace.

Attic

A flight of stairs rise from the first floor landing to an attic landing. To the right is a small room (8 sq m) and the left a door opens to a large attic space (47 sq m) with conversion potential.

Outbuilding

Attached to the house and accessed via the front courtyard garden is an attractive, renovated stone outbuilding providing 38 sq m on each of the two floors. This could be fully converted to provide additional habitable space or even an independent guest house with its own courtyard garden and road access (subject to any relevant planning permissions).

Exterior

To the front of the house is an attractive, paved courtyard garden with mature planting To the rear of the house (backing onto the outbuilding) is a second courtyard garden with covered area and gates to the lane. A short walk from the house, down a small lane, is a detached vegetable garden / orchard.

This is a very pretty house which offers good scope for further development. Whilst in need of work, the investment could make this house a real gem.
