Our floor plan shows the entire layout which briefly includes a range of four generous and separate rooms with a further room at the end of the block accessed from within the courtyard. The first of the rooms at the west side leads into a WC and shower. This entire space lends itself to a range of possibilities, including what could be very comfortable annexed/multi generation space, whist for those looking for home based working/studio space we believe it would work extremely well.
