Standing detached, this attractive stone built cottage is beautifully presented with an abundance of character features including exposed ceiling beams, gritstone fireplaces, sash windows, plus modern finishes such as engineered oak flooring. The accommodation comprises two reception rooms, study and well fitted kitchen to the ground floor, with three bedrooms (two double, one single) plus family bathroom to the first floor. Outside, to the rear of the cottage is a low maintenance courtyard patio garden with a raised seating area and an area for storage. The property is currently run as a successful holiday let but could equally be used as a full time home. A viewing is highly recommended to fully appreciate the full merits of the cottage.
