This floor is heated by thermostatically controlled electric radiators. <br/><br/>There is a WC on the third floor - formerly the tank room which captured rainwater to flush the WC on the first floor. <br/><br/>Externally, the property has a walled cottage garden to the rear set with a number of herbaceous border plants. There is an outbuilding for storage purposes as well as an outside WC, both with lighting. To the front, there is a generous block paved driveway providing parking for several vehicles, established bedding plants and trees and an electrical socket. <br/><br/>Internal viewing highly recommended to truly appreciate.
