The exposed brickwork and original features that remain are steeped in history, adding to the charm of this unique cottage.
Internally, the property comprises of an open-plan living space and kitchen, a central utility room, and a lounge.
To the first floor are three double bedrooms, one of which has an en suite, and the family bathroom.
A spiral staircase on the first floor leads to a second floor study and the principal bedroom, which has a large shower room with a three-piece white suite.
Externally, the central lawn is split by a stepping stone path and surrounded by textured shrubs, varied trees and an apple tree that produces fruit.
Closer to the property, a patio provides a useful seating and a barbecue area for gathering friends and family.
