AGENTS THOUGHTS

The log cabin could provide some great space for working from home or alternatively someone looking to extend or as a project to develop into their dream home, in this lovely location with the added bonus of having somewhere to live throughout the build. Obviously this would be subject to the usual planning permissions. "
