A beautiful house with the added benefit of an investment opportunity (subject to necessary planning) for the former blacksmiths shop to be used as a holiday cottage or bed and breakfast. If you are looking to work from home, why not consider transforming the 'shop' into a superb workspace. The properties would also benefit from being linked together to provide a magnificent family home.

The original blacksmiths shop dates back to 1898 and has formerly been converted and run as a tea room. In 1987 the previous owners built on the site, what is now a spacious and characterful cottage style home. The current occupiers have added features to the property to compliment the era of the blacksmiths shop.

As you step into the entrance hall you get a feel of the character that flows throughout the property, which provides spacious family sized accommodation. On the ground floor are two reception rooms, dining kitchen, utility and shower room. To the first floor there are four bedrooms, ensuite shower room and family bathroom.

To the rear of the house is a stunning garden with woodland walk. The lawn is beautifully kept and it is obvious to see that a lot of love and care has gone into the garden as a whole. It has been designed to provide a pretty place to sit and relax, but would also be a children's dream, with secret paths and secluded hiding places. There is a sturdy shed, summer house and greenhouse.

As you approach the front of the property you are greeted with an array of attractive planting, including mature trees which give a great deal of privacy. There is ample parking, together with a double car port.

THE BLACKSMITHS SHOP IS A HIDDEN GEM JUST WAITING TO BE EXPLORED, AND OFFERS MANY OPPORTUNITIES
