Outside, the rear garden is of a good size, but is in need of complete landscaping. There is also a
useful single storey, cob and stone barn, ideal for storage. The property does have some internal
areas in need of finishing, but not to an extent which is likely to deter a buyer. A personal
inspection is essential to fully appreciate what is on offer.
