The second bedroom and office both overlook the garden and have built in wardrobes. The bedrooms are served by a well appointed family bathroom which has a 'P' shaped bath with a tiled surround and shower above, pedestal wash hand basin and matching WC, and a useful storage cupboard with shelves and oak effect vinyl flooring.
