The property has underfloor heating via an air source pump, and has solid oak ledge and brace doors with matching architraves throughout. The sitting room has a log burning stove set on a flagstone hearth, and French doors to the rear garden. Both bedrooms have built-in wardrobes and views of the rear garden and countryside beyond. The second bedroom has access to the roof space. The four piece bathroom has a bath, a separate walk-in shower, a WC, a vanity washbasin and Travertine tiling. The driveway provides parking for up to three cars immediately by the entrance, and continues at the side with additional parking and access to the grazing meadow (excluding horses) and rear garden.

The plot extends to approximately 3.5 acres in total with mounds forming part of a historical protected farmstead. The whole plot is enclosed by post and rail fencing and mature hedgerow.
