Home description
This property is a little ‘gem'! Pretty as a picture from the outside with steps up to the front door and yet inside the owner has spared no cost in the refurbishment.
Comfortable elegant sofas surround the large open log fire with antiques completing the scene. The kitchen, although traditional in feel has been finished to a high standard with granite work tops and handmade wooden units.
All rooms are wallpapered in pretty traditional prints giving a charming feel to the house – a particular feature is the beautiful hand painted wallpaper on the staircase.
There are three bedrooms on the first floor, one double, one twin and one single and a further bedroom/playroom on the lower ground floor with bunk beds.
