The dining room is perfect for hosting gatherings, with easy access to the terrace and proximity to the kitchen. The kitchen features stylish grey cabinetry, cream granite worktops, a Rangemaster cooker, and ample space for a breakfast table. Completing the downstairs accommodation is a convenient boot room, located by the back door, a utility room, and a handy WC.

First Floor:
Upon reaching the first floor, you'll find four charming bedrooms, each adorned with vaulted ceilings, exposed beams and abundant character. The spacious principal bedroom boasts a dressing room and an en-suite shower room. Bedroom two also has an en-suite shower room. Bedroom three offers a cosy double space, while bedroom four is a quaint single room with plenty of room for a desk. Completing this floor is the generously sized family bathroom, equipped with a roll-top bath for indulgent relaxation.

On the outside:
The Garth presents a welcoming front garden featuring mature hedges and a low-maintenance lawn. The south-facing back garden is truly impressive, boasting a sun-drenched terrace perfect for patio furniture, a well-kept lawned area adorned with beautiful planting, and breathtaking countryside views. The barn attached to the house on one side (to include the outbuilding), has been granted full planning permission for conversion into a further four-bedroom dwelling. This additional space could also be seamlessly integrated to extend the current accommodation, or it could present an excellent opportunity for a holiday let or multi-generational living.

Completing the outdoor space is a small paddock. Convenient parking is situated at the side of the house, providing ample space for multiple vehicles. Furthermore, the current owners rent a portion of a second barn adjoining the property's driveway, which they use as additional storage.
