To the exterior of the property, there is a private driveway accessed via wrought iron gates, that leads to off-street parking for several vehicles. Along with the adjoining land being accessible and divided into manageable paddocks, there is a pleasant, enclosed private patioed entertainment area to the side that makes the perfect place for Al Fresco dining. In addition to the extension and cosmetic work carried out, a new sewage treatment plant, a new oil boiler and hot water cylinder has been installed along with a new bunded oil tank, a full rewire with the electricity supply taken underground by Northern Powergrid, a full new heating system to include Nest smart thermostats installed on both floors, a new roof, all new windows and doors throughout and the repointing of the original property and extensive landscaping works.
