Notes on accommodation
This house has been newly converted from a farm which was belonged to the family for many years. The interior has been designed to architectural standards and is beautifully proportioned with enormous volume, natural materials and sensitive use of original features. It is confortably furnished. The gardens have not yet been landscaped, and this is reflected in the price. The house is in a private cul-de-sac, in the heart of the ancient village.
