Exposed beams, flagstone flooring, a wood-burning stove and traditional cloam oven are complemented by a charming farmhouse-style kitchen, creating a welcoming home with plenty of individuality.
The cottage retains a wealth of period features throughout, while benefiting from useful modern improvements. To the rear, a private courtyard provides access to the garden and a detached outhouse. This versatile additional space incorporates utility facilities, storage, power and water, together with its own independent fuse box. The property is currently heated by an LPG combination boiler, with the existing system providing hot water and radiators capable of being reconnected should a new owner wish to do so.
The entrance hall sets the tone for the property, with attractive tiled flooring and access to the main living areas, together with stairs leading to the first floor. The generous sitting room is a particularly characterful space, featuring exposed ceiling beams, flagstone flooring and an impressive fireplace housing a cast iron wood-burning stove and traditional cloam oven. Two front-facing windows allow plenty of natural light into the room, while an understairs recess provides useful storage. A granite step leads through to the adjoining kitchen/dining room.

Upstairs are three comfortable bedrooms, each offering its own character and outlook. The main bedroom overlooks the front and includes recessed storage, while the second bedroom enjoys views across the rear garden and features attractive exposed floorboards. Bedroom three is arranged in a versatile L-shaped layout, making it well suited to use as a child's bedroom, guest room or home office, with further storage beneath the stairs.
