There are some replacement upvc double glazed windows to the second floor and kitchen, otherwise most windows have secondary glazing.

Externally the property is located off Low Road with a long driveway taking you passed the windmill to the front of the cottage.

The plot extends to approximately 0.2 acres with gardens that are mainly laid to lawn with an abundance of mature trees including fruit trees, shrubs and flower beds.
