To the rear, the dining room offers a secondary social space, complete with its own fireplace and French doors that open directly onto the expansive garden. The kitchen is well-proportioned and practical, benefiting from a traditional pantry for extra storage. Leading off the kitchen is a rear porch, which provides storage space for shoes and coats as well as a further space for appliances and a secondary access point to the garden. The garden is a great size and also south facing, meaning it captures the best of the day's sunshine. It is organised into a patio area, a lawn and a useful area for sheds and storage as well as having planters for fruit and vegetables.

The first floor has three bedrooms, including two large doubles. The main bedroom mirrors the living room below with its own elegant bay window, offering a bright and restful sanctuary. A bathroom with a three piece suite is also on this floor and has a large airing cupboard which currently houses the boiler. The loft has been fully boarded, with a sturdy loft ladder giving great accessibility, making it an ideal space for storing suitcases, Christmas decorations etc.

The property sits on a large, generous plot that offers significant scope for the approved extension.
