Dating back to the 18th century this home is full of history, charm and character with thick stone walls, exposed beams and stone flagged floors, with a well thought out layout making it practical and welcoming for families and guests alike.

The property is entered at the rear via a large utility room, offering plenty of storage for boots and wet weather clothing after a day exploring the local area. This leads into a large well fitted kitchen with views over the open countryside and beyond.

The ground floor is completed with a large living/dining room, an impressive space perfect for entertaining guests with its beamed ceiling and feature fireplace leading to a sitting room, complete with a wood-burning stove.

Upstairs, all the bedrooms have an outlook to the front of the property, over the River Dee.

There is another ensuite bedroom, complete with fitted wardrobes to one wall and two further double bedrooms of good proportions, making four bedrooms in total.
