Nestled behind the sitting room, you'll find the kitchen, complete with a door that leads you to the breathtaking outdoors.
Upstairs, there are three spacious double bedrooms and a main bathroom featuring a bath and shower. Although it has been lived in quite recently, the residence needs some updating to meet modern living standards.
