2 Bedroom Semi-Detached to rent

Property description

The Cottage is a semi-detached stone barn conversion offering beautifully presented two bedroom unfurnished accommodation with a large Open Plan Kitchen/Living Room and a Bathroom. The cottage is approached over a long drive off a quiet country lane, and benefits from its own good sized off-road parking area. From the parking area, a path leads across to the front of the cottage, where an attractive level garden that overlooks railed paddocks beyond. The cottage is available on a minimum let of a 6 month assured shorthold tenancy, but this could be extended as a long-term let. Unfortunately however, because of the nature of the property, children, pets, DSS and smokers would not be accepted. In all, Orchard Cottage offers the opportunity of a peaceful, unspoilt country property with the benefit of a garden and parking, situated in a super, peaceful rural location. Livery for a horse would also be available by separate negotiation.
