Adjoining this room is the “L” shaped kitchen, fitted with a range of matching cream coloured units with wood block work surfaces incorporating round bowl sink, plumbing and space for washing machine and dishwasher, electric cooker point and space for freestanding fridge / freezer. Leading off the kitchen is a double glazed conservatory currently used as a dining room enjoying views over the mature rear gardens.

OUTSIDE

The cottage style garden to the front is enclosed by a natural stone wall with path leading to the entrance door. There is a stone and tile store. There is a public footpath to the side of the property, where the Calor gas bottles and boiler are located as well as gated pedestrian access into the rear garden.

The rear garden is planted with an abundance of herbaceous plants, shrubs, specimen trees and bulbs. This is a gardener’s paradise, with many seating areas to listen to the local bird song and enjoy the surrounding nature, or for those wanting to be more self-sufficient.

We would like to advise prospective purchasers that the adjoining property enjoys a short pedestrian right of way past the conservatory. This is little–used.
