The charming and beautifully presented home features sash windows throughout, four pairs of beautifully preserved cruck beams to the first floor, and a first floor sun room opening to a south west facing verandah. The house has been designed to create flexible spacious living, with twin doors in the sitting room, dining room and kitchen allowing free circulation space for a family and for entertaining. The good sized office would lend itself as a downstairs bedroom if required, and there is a ground floor shower room. The master bedroom has a dressing room and shower room, and two further bedrooms each have shower rooms. The cellar gives approx.1400 sq ft of useful hobby/workshop space.
