A Grade II listed five bedroom detached part thatched cottage with a separate guest wing, in a private position on the edge of the village with open views over fields and countryside. The cottage originally dates from the 18th century and has been extended and refurbished by the current owners. Period features have been blended with a modern contemporary two storey extension. On the ground floor there is an open plan kitchen/dining/family room with a study area, and a dual aspect sitting room which has a high vaulted ceiling and glazed double doors to the terrace in the garden. On the first floor there are three double bedrooms, the master with an en suite and a freestanding bath within the room. A timber framed barn adjacent to the cottage houses a fully self-contained guest wing with two further en suite bedrooms with views.

The cottage is on a quiet no through lane and has a post and rail fence around the perimeter which borders fields. The driveway provides parking for up to ten cars with further gravelled areas at the side and rear.
