House For Sale £595,000
This delightful Grade !! listed property is situated in a truly peaceful and tranquil village with little through traffic and where often the only sound that can be heard is the sound of silence. In part, dating back to the 1700,s this character home has since been reconfigured and was tastefully extended in 1991 using stone and long straw thatch. All works undertaken have involved the retention of the original features aligned to the modern facilities expected by todays discerning buyer.
