Several appliances have been cleverly woven into the design including a stainless-steel cooker with four burner hob over, extractor hood, and fridge/freezer. Additional space has been made available for other free-standing appliances such as a dishwasher and washing machine. The look is finished by recessed ceiling spotlights and a door which opens into the garden. Running parallel is the principal reception room, the living room, which commands impressive dimensions, in this case 16'5ft by 14'9ft and that has an attractive fire set within a tiled backing, raised hearth and timber surround. It has been decorated in a range of neutral tones and hues, with a box bay window to the front elevation.

Ample space has been provided for a table and chairs, creating a real family/sociable area, whilst a superb Oak floor has been laid. The look is finished with panoramic views across the garden, as well as Velux windows, ensuring the room is flooded with an abundance of natural daylight.

Moving upstairs the first-floor landing gives way to all the accommodation on this level, the master of which sits to the rear and benefits from the convenience of its own en-suite. This incorporates a shower enclosure, low level wc and wash hand basin set into a vanity unit. Black and white speckled tiling has been added into the shower area, whilst a heated towel rail contemporises the space further still.
