IN SUMMARY This SUBSTANTIAL HOME and DETACHED ANNEXE/B&B BUILDING extends to some 3396 Sq. ft (stms) of accommodation.

The shower room is ideal for a busy family, with a refitted modern interior comprising a three piece suite with storage, double shower cubicle and Aqua board splash backs. The family room is a versatile space, either as a reception room, or just as a meet and greet space. With a feature fire place, wood flooring and stairs to the first floor, French doors lead out to the garden, with doors internally to the further reception rooms.
