A separate WC and new double-glazed windows throughout further enhance this well-maintained home.

Outside, the property is approached via a long, sweeping driveway lined with mature hedging and colourful planting. Expansive communal gardens provide tranquil seating areas and panoramic views of the surrounding landscape.
