Appraisal
This house and related outbuilding form a handsome domestic group. Set in mature landscaped grounds, the house is sited interestingly, overlooking the surrounding countryside and not orientated towards the road. The slate roofs, timber sliding sash windows and roughcast rendered walls add textural interest to this modest-sized house.
