All the doors are made of oak with lift latch fittings and a handmade oak staircase rises to the first floor.

The ground floor benefits from generous living space with underfloor heating throughout and an abundance of natural light. The accommodation comprises an entrance hall, cloakroom/WC, living room, dining room, stylish kitchen and utility room.

The first floor offers three double bedrooms and a family bathroom, with the main bedroom having an ensuite shower room. There is ample storage with three large eaves storage rooms.

Mature flower beds gently follow the curves of the stoned pathway and contain a multitude of planting. Mature trees are also placed at the boundaries offering dappled shade from the sun.
