The property is on the market with Fine & Country for offers in the region of £1,290,000.

Fine & Country said: "A rare opportunity to enjoy charm, character and modern comfort in an idyllic, private setting.

The large living room features a stone fireplace with a multi-fuel stove and is divided into two areas, offering flexible use of space.
