The dining area offers ample room for a family-sized table and is illuminated by a double-glazed window to the front aspect, with a radiator below. The lounge area is equally inviting and benefits from a recently installed log burner, set on a slate hearth with a timber mantel above, creating an attractive focal point in the room. A further double glazed window to the front aspect allows plenty of natural light to fill the space, with an additional radiator beneath.

Fitted with a range of matching wall and base units, the kitchen is complemented by square-edge work surfaces and tiled splashbacks.
