Pass through the pretty little garden at the front before you step inside to explore all this beautiful home has to offer.
The first room you see is the lounge, take a moment to absorb the inherent character of this room as you won't know where to look first. You are instantly greeted by the huge stone fireplace with the cast iron stove, providing heating and hot water for the house, which takes centre stage. The neutral decor is the perfect backdrop to highlight the many features of this room, the slate floor, the pine doors, the exposed beams and its here you catch your first glimpse of the stunning views at the back of the house. From here we go through to the dining room or second lounge, the choice is yours, this low windows in this room take full advantage of the views and the tranquility of this peaceful setting.
Follow us down the stone steps to explore the kitchen, this room oozes character... It's small but perfectly formed, there is space for dining if you don't want to use the dining room, the handcrafted wooden units provide practical storage and the Belfast sink and wooden surfaces are perfectly in keeping. You will notice a wooden door to your left and if you look a little closer this door reveals a hidden utility room, a fabulous space providing excellent storage often lacking in a property of this type and with its barrelled ceiling it's a reminder of the past when wool would have been stored here for the weavers....How times have changed. The back door opens out to a delightful garden from where you have a private setting to enjoy your morning coffee before heading out or your favourite tipple whilst watching the sun go down.
Climb the wooden staircase and up to the landing area, bathed in natural light from the velux window, there is space here for a favourite piece of furniture, or if you don't have one it's a good excuse to go shopping! This space leads to the two sumptuous double bedrooms, the first is at the back of the house, it's the smaller of the two and the views are outstanding. The second bedroom is at the front of the house, this is a good sized room with plenty of space for furniture.
Now for the smallest room in the house, the bathroom is gorgeous.... The bold choice of colour is perfect on the wood panelling and the roll top bath, creating a striking contrast to the white tiles and sanitaryware, its simply stunning and the perfect spot to unwind after a long walk.
