The third staircase from the large open planned room takes you up to another open plan space, vaulted ceilings, wooden beams, large arched windows and plentiful period features. There is a double bedroom, exposed beams, good views and a modern bathroom with a shower, separate bath, W.C. and sink. The property has multiple options from a family home to home with income or divided into two or three dwellings with the necessary permissions. Large parts of the property have been restored to an excellent standard, some parts still need completing offering a wonderful opportunity.
The front of the property has a gravelled drive with mature shrubs and flower beds. There is ample parking. To the rear of the property there is a good sized lawn area with a patio, mature trees, shrubs and flower beds.
