This incorporates a shower enclosure, low level wc and wash hand basin set into a vanity unit. Modern, sleek tiling adorns the walls, and a heated towel rail and recessed ceiling spotlights contemporise the space further still.

Deep borders have been stocked with an assortment of mature shrubs and bushes, whilst to the far end of the garden is a shed and large workshop. Additionally, timber fencing encloses the boundary and provides gated side access.
