A study and a ground floor bathroom with shower complete the ground floor layout, all finished to a high standard and maintained in excellent condition.

The living spaces are complemented by a garden that is easily accessible from multiple points, including two sets of double patio doors from the living room, double patio doors from the dining room, and direct access from the back kitchen, creating a seamless indoor-outdoor flow and ideal for entertaining or family enjoyment.

The first floor is equally impressive, featuring a large central landing that provides additional flexible space, perfect for a reading area, informal seating or play space.
