The house is of stone elevations beneath a tiled roof and comprise of the original cottage (believed to have dated back approximately 250 years) which has been sympathetically extended by the owners to create a fabulous family home. Quarry Cottage offers the best of both worlds with an abundance of period charm with features such as; exposed stone walls in some of the rooms, a fabulous fireplace with log burner in the sitting room and a welcoming farmhouse kitchen. These quality period features are combined with the conveniences of modern living such as double glazing and gas central heating. The cottage is set in a private position at the end of this no through lane within its own grounds approaching an acre.

The property is presented in excellent order throughout and offers the purchaser the opportunity to live in a peaceful rural location on the fringes of town.
