• Three Bedrooms: The property offers three comfortable bedrooms, each with unique period features like picture rails and storage solutions.
• Charming Gardens: The south-facing plot includes a variety of well-maintained garden areas:
o East Courtyard: Ideal for alfresco dining, surrounded by original walls.
o West Garden: Home to mature flower beds, fruit trees, and shrubs.
o Main Lawn Area: Features a potting shed, summer house, and access to a garage/workshop, perfect for garden enthusiasts.
• Garage and Parking: The property includes ample gated parking, a garage/workshop, and a cart lodge canopy, providing secure and convenient vehicle storage.
