Inside, the house measures around 141sq m and retains plenty of character, from painted timber floors to tongue-and-groove ceilings.
The kitchen and dining area has a country-style design with beamed ceilings, a tiled floor and a raised fireplace, while the living room centres on a solid fuel stove set into a natural stone surround.
Double doors lead directly to the sunroom, a space with a pitched pine ceiling, skylights and panoramic views.

There are two bedrooms, one on the ground floor and a larger room upstairs with elevated views over the countryside.
The layout is completed by a fully tiled shower room and a utility room with guest WC. Outside, a detached storage shed, and an attached boiler house add practical space.
The village of Ballydehob is less than 6km away. The nearby coastline offers some of the region's most scenic beaches, coves and walking routes. Bantry and Skibbereen are also within easy reach.

Rita Ora shows off her incredible body in Burberry bikini as she hangs out on a farm with celeb pals
RITA Ora looked sensational as she stripped to a Burberry bikini for a A-list weekend away. The Hot Right Now songstress, 34, donned the beige print two piece with its iconic check print as she struck a pose in the sunshine. 6 6 6 Chart star Rita 's rock hard abs were on full display and she accessorised with a bling gold necklace and bracelet. She swept her hair in a chic up-do and went make-up free to show her natural beauty, while perching a pair of sunglasses on her head. The songstress held up a mug as she stood by a white sun lounger on a staycation with her very famous girl mates. She was joined by Salma Hayek, Kate and daughter Lila Moss, Stella McCartney and Vas Morgan. Chelsea Handler rounded off the A-List contingent for their getaway on a farm. Salma was seen waring a grey vest top and nude baseball cap as she sat in the middle of a field full of cows. TOWIE alum Vas wore an all-black outfit and brandished a fan as he stretched out on a lounger while Chelsea was seen sipping a red drink. Stella kicked back and relaxed in an oatmeal coloured tracksuit as she nattered on her phone. In her caption, actress Salma wrote: "Life on the farm." Rita Ora stuns fans and looks almost unrecognisable in punk makeover for The Fashion Awards and you'll never guess where her suit is from One fan wrote underneath: "From Hollywood to hay bales — still the queen in every setting." Another posted: "A beautiful day and blessings." A third then put: "Such a gorgeous lady with class also!" The trip comes days after Rita flashed her legs in red hotpants. She also previously showed off her figure in bikinis from her own Primark collection. ALL CHANGE Rita previously told of her love of partying - but how turning 30 "changed everything." The singer revealed that the milestone birthday in November 2020 sparked a major U-turn and saw her overhaul her health and focus on work. Rita said: 'My work ethic, I'm proud of it. I think it's higher than other people's in a lot of different ways. 'I always want to break boundaries and inspire people, that's always been my goal. 'And I do sacrifice a lot of things to do that, like I don't see my family as much. I have lonely birthdays. I miss Christmases. It's a lot of sacrifices to do this. 'I just came off this three-and-a- half-month shoot in Australia for a huge film called Voltron, which is a big-budget movie. 'It's not easy doing these things and then also making a record on the weekends, which is the only days I have off. 'If you're willing to do the work, nothing is impossible. I really do believe people can do it all.' Talking about her hellraising days, Rita, who grew up in West London after her family moved there from Kosovo when she was a baby, told On the Reign With Josh Smith podcast: 'I made money, I didn't come from money, and I just really was living every day like it was my last, with no care about what was going to happen the next day. 'I regret not being a bit more considerate, I would say, with myself, my body, my mental health, but also others." 6 6

Real Housewives of Brisbane star lists stunning six-bedroom mansion
High-profile businesswoman Fleur Madden is set to put her Queensland mansion under the hammer. Madden, who was cast in the axed Real Housewives of Brisbane spin-off, has not listed a price guide for the two-storey, six-bedroom property she shares with her husband, mining executive Jimmy Gwisai. According to sales records, the median sale price for large upscale properties in Coorparoo, where the home is situated, is an impressive $2.5million The couple's property, dubbed The Palms, is inspired by the architecture found in Florida around Palm Springs. Highlights include a dazzling façade, stone archways, a pink blush front door and a private dining room that features a built-in 'wine wall' and spectacular chandelier. There's also a curved staircase, terrazzo tiling, oak timber floors, a beautifully appointed 'media room' and a home office that can double as a bedroom. The ground floor offers an open-plan layout combining an oversized kitchen and living space, which opens out to a covered patio and al fresco dining and pool area. Other highlights include soaring three-metre ceilings and a master suite occupying an entire corner of the top floor, which also features a grand ensuite and dressing room. Impressive 'classic' details are featured prominently in the appointments, including French doors and windows. It comes after Madden, who runs the Ginsburg Advisory business brand, was all set to star in reality spin-off, The Real Housewives of Brisbane. Announced in 2023, Foxtel dropped the Brisbane edition in favour of a second Sydney season. Madden was to feature in a cast including couture designer Sonia Stradiotto and jewellery designer Jimena Alejandra. Speaking to Adelaide Now at the time, Alejandra revealed that she was first approached in 2022. Also interviewed for the story was Madden, who said that the network had plans to make the series different and less frivolous than its predecessors. 'They were specifically looking for businesswomen and women that had their own success, they were trying to make it different,' she told the publication in 2023. It was earlier reported that The Real Housewives reality franchise would be moving to Brisbane and the Gold Coast. According to The Courier Mail, suitable candidates living in Queensland's wealthiest postcodes were being sought out. Producers had approached a number of high-profile women, and some reportedly declined the opportunity, opting to keep their lives private.
