Three are doubles with built-in wardrobes, while the master bedroom enjoys the added luxury of a dressing room and a private en-suite. A contemporary family bathroom completes the first floor with a clean, modern three-piece suite.
Outside, the rear garden offers privacy and space in equal measure. A patio and raised terrace provide inviting areas for seating and outdoor dining, framed by a maintained lawn and established shrubbery, a setting that feels both manageable and rewarding.
