To the first floor are three double bedrooms, all with southerly facing windows overlooking the picturesque village, and feature fireplace. Bedroom one features a refitted en-suite shower room and all of the bedrooms retain original character features, such as beams, panelled doors and storage cupboards. There is also a family bathroom and separate WC. To the second floor is a fourth double bedroom with vaulted ceiling and exposed beams, an opening leads to a versatile space currently used as a home office. Outside, there is a courtyard to the rear with gated pedestrian access. A brick built outhouse creates ideal storage space with a wood store and coal bunker.
