Railway Hotel is an attractive Grade II Listed house which is believed to date back to 1842. The property in brief comprises a large open entrance porch with the front door which leads into a hallway with original flag stone floors and stairs rising to the first floor. There are three reception rooms, a kitchen/diner, matching base units and Aga. A door leads to the rear porch and downstairs bathroom. The lounge is well presented and has a log burner. There is another large room to the ground floor which requires some work. To the first floor are five double bedrooms which are all served by the family bathroom. There is a kitchen/diner/lounge to the first floor with a separate staircase which leads to the ground floor and has its own front door. The property itself requires modernisation throughout. Agents Notes: uPVC windows have been put in at the rear. Due to the Grade II Listing, it may be a requirement to replace these with timber framed single glazed windows, to keep it in keeping with the building. The septic tank also needs replacing as it is currently non complaint.
