The property

The two double bedrooms both have space for additional free-standing furniture and offer fantastic countryside and sea views to the front. For additional comfort, the property benefits from (oil-fired central heating) and part double glazing. Drainage is to a private septic tank. To the front of the property is an enclosed garden with stone wall and gate leading to the adjacent fields. The rear garden has a timber shed and offers off-road parking.
