One of the bedroom benefits from an en-suite shower room whist the family bathroom is equipped with both a shower unit and traditional roll-top bath.
The substantial annexe (1,173 sq.ft) is a fantastic addition having been constructed in 2022 from a former farm building finished with traditional Cotswold stone elevations and contemporary tin cladding.
