A 19ft master bedroom overlooking the front gardens has a large ensuite bathroom benefitting from under floor heating. Numerous storage rooms can be found within the first floor accommodation. The second floor landing has numerous bookshelves and built in storage cupboards leading to three bedrooms comprising a guest bedroom; L shaped bedroom and elongated playroom/study room and cot/dressing room.
