The characterful lounge overlooks the wonderful countryside, framed by patio doors out to the garden, and features sympathetically restored exposed timber beams, low ceilings, plenty of comfortable seating and a TV. The adjoining sunny and spacious kitchen/diner is well-equipped with everything you may need to cater, as well as a large rustic dining table and chairs. A handy separate utility room provides further appliances. Upstairs, you’ll find two bedrooms, one double and one twin, both benefiting from the same exposed timber frames as downstairs, as well as feature sloping ceilings and far-reaching views. You’ll also find a contemporary family bathroom upstairs.
The patio doors in the living room open out onto a large, securely fenced south-facing patio area, with views over the fields towards Kerry Ridgeway, for the perfect backdrop to dine alfresco or fire up the BBQ. Two gates from the patio lead onto a large yard, giving access to a handy lean-to area housing some garden furniture.
