Description

This property enjoys a rural location with near neighbours and is approximately 6 miles from the village of Alford. It has a wonderful open outlook to the west with uninterrupted views over open countryside, and is accessed by a short shared private lane.

Internally the property has been recently refurbished to a very high standard by the owner who has carefully retained much of the Coach House's 18th century character, turning it into a comfortable and up-to-date spacious home which is in first class order throughout.

The house is full of large windows throwing plenty of natural light into each of the rooms many of which have exposed granite walls. The décor throughout is light and contemporary.
