Dating in origin from the 19th Century this elegant family home has been futureproofed, embracing ecology with a ground source heat pump powering underfloor heating, high levels of insulation and solar panels which all contribute to low running costs. The latter also generate an income from the fit tariff.

As well as offering the potential for multi-generational living, the property offers scope for a variety of options including a retreat, business/consulting, holiday lets or Airbnb. The main house has been upgraded to meet HMO regulations.

The accommodation in the main house provides two double aspect reception rooms with wood burners, a large comprehensively fitted kitchen/dining room with bi-fold doors opening onto the terrace and garden, a utility room and cloak/shower room.

On the first floor, there is an en suite master bedroom and four further bedrooms, together with a family bathroom. The loft has had a Velux window added and could be used as a sixth bedroom (subject to planning permission).
