A door to the front of the property opens into a double glazed entrance porch, which has an inner door through to the sitting room.

A stylish, dual-aspect reception room, the sitting room can accommodate a dining table and chairs and benefits from a central fireplace with an inset wood-burning stove. This comfortable room also includes an exposed beamed ceiling, the staircase to the first floor and attractive wall panelling.

Smartly presented, the bathroom includes lovely patterned floor tiles and contrasting white wall tiling, including around the bath.

A staircase from the kitchen then leads down to an impressive utility room/boot room. Beautifully decorated, this useful space offers space for a tumble dryer (and wine cooler!), as well as a thoughtfully designed area for coats, boots and other outdoor equipment. There is access from the utility room through to an integral garage and an external door out to the driveway parking at the rear.
