You'll note an expertly chosen array of top notch wall shades throughout - they gently contrast to create the perfect ambience. Two exquisite wooden framed arched double glazed sash windows maintain the integrity of the house; they face front over the garden. Back through the dining room you reach two wide chunky steps which lead down to the kitchen. Natural stone flooring (with underfloor heating) meet extra thick-cut polished concrete counters.

The garden is an utter joy! A wide glass door opens to the decked patio which is tiered offer seating for every last drop of the south-westerly sun.

A door to the rear of the dining area leads to a rear lobby with wc and further garden access.
