Turning right leads to the main house bathroom, which is fitted with a bath with shower over, wash hand basin and toilet. Continuing through the accommodation is a large open kitchen situated to the right with space for kitchen appliances to be added. The kitchen is sufficiently spacious to accommodate a dining area, creating a large kitchen diner, with an additional storage cupboard which could be used as a utility room. At the front of the property is a large living room benefiting from a large bay window.

A second feature timber staircase leads to the second floor, which provides three bedrooms, with two positioned at the front of the property and a larger bedroom to the rear.
