4 bedroom house

Occupying a delightful 'off the beaten track', rural location, an extended 4 bedroom detached house of some character with outstanding countryside views. Brook Cottage has been extended and improved over a number of years by the current owners and now offers well-proportioned family accommodation. Of particular merit is the master bedroom with French doors opening onto the balcony, a lovely space for enjoying the views over the garden and surrounding countryside.
