The lounge and dining area boasts character with solid wood floors and exposed beams. A cozy brick fireplace with a roaring log burner makes this space perfect for relaxing, while wooden shutters provide privacy for the two front-facing windows.
Upstairs, a wide oak staircase leads to the landing, where you'll find the versatile second bedroom.
