The property was built circa 1650 and has approximately 1,400 sq. ft. of accommodation which successfully blends modern and character features which include latch and brace doors, original fireplaces, exposed timbers, and stone walls. Accommodation includes an entrance porch which opens into a sitting/dining room which measures 20 ft. 5 by 15 ft. 8 and has an Inglenook fireplace with a wood burning stove, stairs to the first floor, and glazed double doors to the family room. Also on the ground floor is a kitchen/breakfast room, a utility room, and a shower room. On the first floor there are four bedrooms, two of which have built-in wardrobes. There is a three piece bathroom which has a WC, a washbasin, and a roll-top bath with a shower attachment.

Outside

The property is approached via a path from the High Street leading up to the gated entrance. There is a path to the front door and access to the garden which wraps around to the side of the property. The garden is laid to lawn with mature herbaceous borders and trees. Steps lead down to a lower level garden which is also laid to lawn with a shrub border. The rear border is marked by a low level stone wall so that the far reaching panoramic views over the surrounding countryside are not obscured.
