In 2011 it was extensively refurbished to upgrade the heating system with Ground Source Heat Pump (GSHP) and all bathroom and kitchen fittings. This included underfloor heating, with high insulation, new ensuite bathroom, cloakroom/toilet, kitchen, cooker, shower room, electrical upgrades with new consumer unit and PV s on the roof. The result was a modern, warm and comfortable family home achieving a A rating in energy efficiency. The premises has a septic tank for drainage, which is emptied about every three years. The PV s and GSHP now attract RHI grants for several years, which are paid every quarter to the householder. The Council Tax Band for the property is Band E. The Householder also has Moor Rights. This allows the use of the moor to graze animals and access to the moor. There are extensive paths over the moor for exercising horses without having to venture onto the highway. When planning permission was granted in May 1989 it came with a Agricultural Occupancy restriction. An application was made in 2014 to get this restriction lifted, which was granted in April 2015. GARDEN Four Fields, Fenced off private garden area which is landscaped and offers two decking areas overlooking the fantastic views on offer. DRIVEWAY Parking for several vehicles.
