There is a door to a utility/WC and door through to the dining room which is a generous sized room with steps rising to the 1st floor with under stairs cupboard, feature fire place with electric wood burning stove and wonderful views over the garden. Door leads through to the sitting room which is a well-proportioned triple aspect room with exposed stone fireplace with gas wood burning stove effect onto the timber-decked terrace.
On the 1st floor there is a landing with doors to the principle rooms and airing cupboard. The master bedroom is a sizable dual aspect bedroom with fitted wardrobes and views over the village. The two further bedrooms are good sized doubles and there is a family bathroom which comprises a traditional four-piece suite including a separate shower and jacuzzi style bath.
Outside
