Three further double bedrooms, one with its own en suite, all feature fitted wardrobes. Even the landing has been designed with lifestyle in mind, offering a bright corner perfect for a reading nook or home study.

The gardens, landscaped with a Spanish influence, unfold across multiple levels with manicured lawns, terraces, and quiet corners for private reflection or entertaining.
