The dining room provides access to the cellar which has plumbing for a washing machine if required and hosts the original wash sink. On the first floor is a double bedroom with a stripped wood floor and walk in storage, and a spacious, well appointed bathroom (which could conceivably be split to make a third bedroom) comprising a panel bath with an overhead shower to mixer taps, a low flush WC, a heated towel rail, his and hers wash hand basins with tiled splash backs, wall mirrors and glass shelving and the newly installed Worcester Bosch gas central heating boiler. Both also benefit from gorgeous wooden sash style windows. Finally the top floor is home to the larger of the two bedrooms.
