Listers Cottage is a Grade II listed detached house constructed primarily of stone under a pantile roof and incorporates the Village Shop. The property has been improved by the current owners and provides spacious accommodation on 3 floors including a superb Studio to the second floor. There are beautiful gardens to the rear and a superb timber framed Garage of recent construction.
