She opened the door shortly after midday last Tuesday when she was sexually assaulted over her clothing.

She was eventually able to get the offender out of the property, detectives said.

A police spokesman explained: “The suspect was described as a slim white man, 5ft 10, with short white hair and white facial stubble.

“He was believed to be wearing a checked padded shirt jacket, khaki cargo shorts, a grey vest top and light brown boots.”

The incident was reported to police two days later and a man was arrested and bailed while enquiries continue.
