From the seller:
‘’Sunshine Cottage is the perfect combination of old and new, retaining original characteristics, but having modern features. There is nothing better than cosying up on cold winters days with the log burner on, it really makes the house so snug. Alternatively on long summers days enjoying the garden with its raised beds, both flowers and vegetable ones.
If you love the sun the raised gravel area a perfect sun trap, shielded by the most wonderful honeysuckle. For a cooler alternative the log store area stays cool until the evening where the evening sun warms it. Perfect for al fresco dining. Then there is autumn which brings the fruits of the apple and pear trees.
There are the most amazing walks from the doorstep, the river Ivel where the dogs can cool off in the summer and three pubs which can be accessed with minimal road interaction.’’
