Bedroom two is another spacious double, complete with a large front-facing window that brightens the room beautifully throughout the day. But the real wildcard? A versatile study/dressing room tucked just before the principal bedroom. Complete with built-in storage and French doors opening directly onto the garden, this room is wonderfully adaptable and generous in size, easily large enough to serve as an additional bedroom if desired. The family bathroom is delightfully distinctive, blending vintage flair with quirky detail. Chessboard-effect flooring, a feature bath with green tiled surround, WC, bidet and sink all combine to create a space packed with personality, while the skylight, garden-facing window and wood-effect ceiling flood the room with warmth and natural light.
