The first floor offers 3 good sized double bedroom and a newly fitted bathroom with roll top bath and separate shower.

A further area of garden runs to the West of the property, passing a stone outbuilding/log store. To the rear an area of lawn can be found which completes the garden. The 2 timber stables are to the rear of the property and benefit from a water supply. The land is gently sloping pasture with an area of wood to the North. In total it extends to 5.56 acres.
