A substantial utility room with side access leads through to the double garage, complete with electric up-and-over door. The formal dining room is both elegant and inviting, enjoying dual-aspect light and French doors opening onto the garden. Adjacent, a versatile family room, also with garden access, offers potential as a fifth bedroom. Ideal for guests or multigenerational living, with scope to create a ground floor shower room nearby.
