Currently running as a successful holiday cottage, the property is also perfect for anyone looking to relocate to the area, having been meticulously updated throughout to a high specification by the present owners. Featuring a welcoming porch that leads into an attractive lounge/diner with exposed ceiling timbers and a wood burning stove, creating a warm and inviting atmosphere as well as a luxury kitchen to the ground floor.

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
Septic Tank
We have been informed that the property has a septic tank and would advise any prospective purchaser to check it complies with current standards and rules introduced on 1st January 2020.
Lease
We understand that although the tenure of the property is freehold, when it was purchased by the current owners, the external utility room was not part of the freehold. The current vendors took out a 999 year lease on the utility room in 2019, and we believe that in doing this, they also obtained a right of way through the undercroft of the barn to reach the utility room.
Please note: we understand that no further service/management charges are payable in respect of the lease.
