The accommodation flows neatly from the dining through to a very useful study area which would make a great ‘work from home office’ and on to the rear of the property into the conservatory which overlooks the west facing rear garden. The conservatory measures 29’ 3” x 13’ and is a superb spot to enjoy views over the garden all year round.

Bedroom two is also a generous double bedroom complete with ensuite shower room and further built in storage.
