There are two bedrooms approximately 25 metres squared and a smaller bedroom on a mezzanine floor approximately 12 metres squared. One of the side barns has been converted into a large kitchen to the rear of which is a utility room and bathroom. There is a large hallway with a cloakroom to the rear. above the ground floor is a 'granier' approximately 440 square metres which is ripe for conversion into bedrooms.
