This stunning detached house and gite have been carefully and sympathetically restored to a very high standard. Great home and income potential, 3 separate detached barns 2 of which are suitable for conversion. And, the beautiful views! The property benefits from double glazing throughout and oil fired central heating. There are a wealth of original features including a granite fireplace, exposed stone walls and beams.
