Located close to to the eastern end of Cowbridge Town and within easy reach of the Town Centre and all its shops and services.

The lounge has timber sash windows, with secondary glazed panes, looking onto the front courtyard garden and Eastgate. This large room has, as a focal feature, a wonderfully understated marble mantelpiece surrounding an inset fire (potential to re-instate); it is flanked to both sides by shelved alcoves. The hallway continues into the kitchen/breakfast room, a neat and efficient space to the rear of the property. Of two distinct areas, the breakfast room has ample space for a family sized dining table whilst the kitchen includes a comprehensive run of units with appliances, where fitted, to remain including gas hob, double electric oven, fully integrated dishwasher. Space remaining for washing machine and American style fridge/freezer. Double width, glazed doors lead from the breakfast room to the most recent addition to the property, a generous garden room. It features flagstone flooring and is lit from above by a lantern light. This wonderfully adaptable space has plenty of room for a dining table with a larger seating area to the far end with especially broad glazed windows and central sliding doors looking out over, and opening onto, a flagstone paved sunken garden. A doorway leads to a ground floor shower room/WC. Accessed from the breakfast area, an under stairs doorway leads down to a sizable cellar, ideal for wine cellar and additional storage. A window looks to the front elevation.

To the first floor, a central landing area with exposed, vanished floorboards has doors leading to all three double bedrooms and to the family bathroom. The largest double bedroom looks to the front elevation and includes a shelved alcove and a particularly deep walk-in wardrobe.
