This Grade II listed property combines character features with comfortable family living. The ground floor comprises two south-facing reception rooms overlooking the front. The welcoming sitting room features a wood-burning stove set on a stone hearth and herringbone parquet flooring, creating a warm and inviting atmosphere. The family room offers a relaxed space, with timber beams and exposed stonework enhancing its rustic charm. At the rear, the kitchen/dining room enjoys a delightful garden outlook and is fitted with granite-topped cabinets, a traditional Aga range cooker, and handmade tiles. A leaded-glass door leads to a utility room and a connecting passage, providing additional practical access from front to rear garden.
