Description

The Old Forge is a beautiful 17th Century period cottage presented in delightful order. Over the last 6 years the present owners have created a wonderful home bursting with charm and character. The gardens are a joy to behold with terraced seating areas, deep shrubbery borders and meandering pathways backing onto Forestry Commission land, ideal for spotting the varied local wildlife including owls and buzzards. The present owners have added a superb annexe within the rear garden, affectionately Wisteria Lodge, which is entirely self contained and may perfectly suit blended families, a home office, or a potential additional income. With off road parking and a detached garage, what more could you possibly ask for!
