Upstairs, the property comprises three double bedrooms, one of which benefits from an en-suite shower room. A Jack and Jill W/C serves the bedrooms, and there is scope to reconfigure the layout to better suit individual needs.
The property benefits from oil-fired central heating and double glazing, further modernisation to internal decoration could improve the cottage.
Externally, Newton Garth Cottage is set within generous grounds. The property includes a 0.7-acre wraparound garden and a 0.4-acre meadow, along with a detached garage. Please note, the meadow is subject to a covenant that restricts any building development.
