The master bedroom oozes class; possessing a three piece en-suite shower room and French doors out to a balcony area with ample space for a table and chairs.

NB: The neighbouring property possesses a historic vehicular right of way to access a field below Hawthorn Cottage which we have been advised is no longer in the neighbours ownership. We have been advised by the current vendors that during their occupation this right of way has never been utilised as there are multiple alternative access points to the field via the road.

Hawthorn Cottage is being sold with a septic tank, which will be made compliant before completion of sale.
