Adjacent to the living room, you will find the kitchen. As part of a programme of works by the owner in preparation for selling, the kitchen has been updated to include modern grey gloss units with contrasting black countertops. The sleek modern appeal of the room is completed by grey herringbone effect flooring, brand new oven & gas hob, stainless steel sink and mixer tap. 

It is worth noting there is space for both a washing machine and dishwasher with an alcove and power for a freestanding fridge freezer. 

The bathroom features a timeless black and white theme with a three piece white suite and a wall mounted thermostatic shower over the bath. Hot water is provided by the Worchester Bosch Combi Boiler which was installed in 2022.
