The property is accessed from the side through a composite door leading into the entrance hall, laid with parquet flooring and benefiting from a fresh downstairs cloakroom with WC and hand basin, and an understairs cupboard.

The open landing features a large front-facing window with juliet balcony bringing in a wealth of light into the house.
