Steps lead up to the front door of this imposing and substantial period home, which is understood to originally date back to the 1600's in the earliest section. Later additions in the 19th and 20th century, the latest in the 1990's, result in the substantial three storey house which stands today.

The property offers versatile accommodation enjoying a wealth of character and charm, which has been diligently maintained and presented to a high standard by the current owners of just over three decades. The property stands in gardens and grounds of approximately 1/3 acre with a private gated driveway to the rear leading to a substantial garage/workshop with adjoining triple car port, positioned in the heart of the village within a short distance of all the village facilities and amenities
