Constructed of stone beneath a traditional slate roof, the property is distinguished by attractive bay windows to the front elevation. To the west elevation, an attractive brick-built utility/garden room opens onto a courtyard.

    The property benefits from recently refurbished double-glazed windows throughout, while a striking cupola floods the hallway with natural light. The beautifully proportioned rooms retain an abundance of period charm, including original cornicing and fireplaces.

    A paved pathway leads to the front entrance, framed by a stone pediment. Beyond the front door, a tiled vestibule with a glazed inner door opens into an L-shaped reception hall, featuring a WC and a useful understairs cloak cupboard fitted with hooks and hanging rails.

This is complemented by a south-facing dining room, which also features a charming period fireplace.

An archway leads through to the utility/garden room, which benefits from two Velux windows and is fitted with a washing machine, tumble dryer, sink and fridge-freezer. A half-glazed door opens onto the paved courtyard, where there is an external store and a gate onto the path.
