A canopy porch shelters a half glazed door into an entrance lobby with an inner door opening into a generous hallway with original tiled floor and stairs running to the first floor.

At the front of the house is a sitting room with feature fireplace (Morso multi-fuel stove inset) with fitted storage to either side of the chimney breast and opening into a dining area with a log store and varnished floor boards.

To the rear of the house is a generous kitchen with recently fitted high gloss wall and base units and a breakfast bar. A range-style cooker with 5 gas rings and double electric oven/grills and a warming tray is at the centre of the kitchen with plumbing for washing machine and dishwasher and space for a tumble dryer and fridge freezer.
