There are also a number of useful sheds to the rear, providing storage for fuel, gardening equipment, hobbies and general storage, together with a dog run.

Accommodation
On entering the property, you arrive into a tiled entrance hallway which leads into the main kitchen/living area.

The kitchen is fitted and the living area has a particularly attractive feature in the form of a large open loft space overlooking the room below. This space has previously been used as a sleeping area and adds considerable character and flexibility to the property. It is accessed by a ladder and offers an interesting opportunity for the new owner, subject to any necessary requirements.

A solid fuel stove is positioned within an attractive stone chimney breast, creating a lovely focal point in the kitchen/living area. There is also a rear door providing direct access to the garden.

Off the hallway is the main bedroom, family bathroom and a separate laundry/utility room.

The bathroom incorporates both a bath and shower.

The laundry room also provides access to a second loft area. While this area does not currently have access, it offers further potential for storage or future development, subject to the necessary requirements.
