A car port has a roof composed of solar panels generating 5kw of power and a battery array offers 5kWh of storage for night time use.

The house comprises of a lower ground floor (20 sqm) with outside terrace overlooking the garden. Travertine tiles provide the perfect base for a kitchen diner (to be chosen and fitted by the buyer) with power points and water connections ready. There is an adjacent shower room with toilet and hand basin.

Stairs lead up to a living room with views over the garden and an entrance door to the front of the house.

Above, there is a loft storage space and a second loft space which could take a double bed. As this is not head height space, it has not been included in the total floor area.

The gardens run down to a stream and could be arranged as lawns or a combination of spaces including vegetable plots.
