Follow the kitchen area around and you be back ln the hallway which brings you full circle to the bottom of the staircase with its lovely panelling detail but before you climb upwards, take a trip out to the garden for a wander round.

Outside you will find a nice sized garden which has a combination of paved and planted areas. To the left side is a decked area which is just right for garden furniture so you can enjoy a sunny day. There are trees to provide shade when you need it and also a brick storage building where you can keep your chairs, BBQ and other bits and bobs safely stored away.

With plenty of potential to make a stunning cosy area to relax in and entertain, throw up some sparkly lights and a pot or two and chill.

Time to venture upstairs now and as you reach the landing there are two bedrooms and the bathroom to take a peek at, take a quick look at the stunning stained glass window that allows the sun to stream in, making this landing a lovely bright space.

The bathroom is the first on your left and this is a good size with a tub to soak your weary bones and plenty of space to add a free standing shower. It has a extraordinary large and deep fitted cupboard providing lots of storage for fluffy towels and anything else you may want to hide away. The wonderful mirrored doors ensures that you look your best before heading off out.
