This 17th-century cottage has a combined 2,263 sq. ft of versatile accommodation arranged over two floors. On the ground floor there is a kitchen with a separate breakfast room, leading to a utility room and a shower room, as well as three further receptions rooms: a sitting room, a dining room, and a snug. On the first floor, with its own staircase, the principal bedroom has a three piece en suite shower room. The three remaining bedrooms lead off the first floor landing, accessed via a staircase in the dining room. They have fitted wardrobes and there is a three piece family bathroom. Retained period features include wooden flooring, exposed timbers, ceiling beams, and feature exposed brick fireplaces. A five-bar timber gate opens to a gravel driveway with off street parking for four cars leading to the detached twin detached garages, with up and over doors and a rear personnel door accessing the rear. There are established front and rear gardens.

There is a two-level storage island with granite and wooden worksurfaces, an Aga inset to a brick chimney breast with tiles behind, and tiled flooring. Character features include exposed timber wall and ceiling beams and lead glazed windows overlooking the gardens, one with a window seat.
