The versatile accommodation has been thoughtfully arranged and offers excellent potential for a variety of uses, whether for multi-generational living, home-working, or generating additional income through holiday accommodation, subject to any necessary consents.
Accommodation
The property briefly comprises an entrance porch leading into an inner hallway. To one side is a welcoming dining room which flows into the kitchen, fitted with a range of wall and base units complemented by work surfaces. Subject to requirements, these rooms could easily be opened up to create a spacious open-plan kitchen/dining area.
Leading from the dining room is a cosy lounge featuring a beautiful inglenook fireplace with an inset wood-burning stove. Off the lounge is a third bedroom, which could equally serve as a home office or hobby room.
Returning to the hallway, there is a generous study, again benefitting from a wood-burning stove, along with two additional bedrooms and a family bathroom comprising a three-piece suite with an electric shower over the bath.
A second living room provides additional reception space and includes stairs leading to the first-floor accommodation. Completing the ground floor are a utility/boot room, separate WC, shower room and a large utility porch.
To the first floor are three further bedrooms enjoying views across the surrounding countryside.
