“The current owners introduced a successful B&B operation, offering three elegantly appointed letting rooms alongside The Calder, a newly renovated self-catering apartment.

“However, at its core, The Dower House remains a welcoming family home with the letting rooms simply complementing the property’s character.”

Galbraith said extensive renovations to enhance and preserve the home’s period charm have been carried out to the highest degree.

Original features such as intricate woodwork, picture rails and ornate cornicing have been carefully retained or restored.

Upstairs, there are four en suite double bedrooms and a home office.

The self-contained ‘Calder’ apartment can be accessed both externally and internally from the main house’s dining room.

A Galbraith spokesperson said: “Fully accessible, the apartment has proven to be a highly sought-after holiday let.

“However, its adaptable design means it could also be used as a residential rental or seamlessly incorporated into the main house as additional living space.

“The apartment also benefits from its own enclosed garden and patio.”

The Dower House sits within 0.91 acres of beautifully landscaped gardens.

Adding to the property’s appeal is a Bertsch Holzbau timber-framed garden cabin, currently used as a workshop but with potential for conversion into a summerhouse or studio.

The spokesperson said: “Further outbuildings include open-fronted wood and general stores, as well as two 7kW electric vehicle charging points, ensuring The Dower House is well-equipped for modern living.

The Dower House is set in its own extensive grounds complete with planters and outbuildings.
