A THREE-BEDROOM detached period cottage is set in gardens and grounds of approximately 2.2 acres.

The home is built with stone and rendered elevations and has a tiled roof.

The front porch opens into a split level hallway with stairs to the first floor, cloakroom and access to the main reception rooms.

The double aspect sitting room has a stone fireplace with inset multifuel stove.

This room leads to an oak framed garden room with two sets of double opening doors to the garden and steps up to a cosy study.

The kitchen benefits from a walk in pantry/utility room which also houses the oil fired boiler.

There are three generous bedrooms to the first floor.

The property occupies a peaceful and slightly elevated position approached from the village lane through double gates that lead to a gravelled driveway/parking area.

The gardens and grounds form a perfect setting for this charming cottage with a mix of formal and informal areas.

Through the middle of the gardens and grounds runs the former mill leat with crystal clear water, small trout and other aquatic life.
