Additional Information

Due to the property's age and character, the staircase is relatively steep and narrow compared to that of a modern home. Prospective tenants with very young children or pets are encouraged to consider whether the layout is suitable for their individual needs. Well-behaved pets will be considered on a case-by-case basis.

Current occupiers have successfully used the broadband connection for home working, video calls and streaming services, and full-fibre broadband will shortly be available in the area.
