Character, charm & cracking bones

A long hallway leads to two well-proportioned bedrooms, a three-piece bathroom and a handy utility room (because nobody wants their smalls on display!).
The generous living/dining room features a dramatic sloping ceiling and an elegant cased opening, while the well-equipped kitchen overlooks the leafy communal garden. Flambé your fritters with a view!
You also benefit from private rear access, communal front entrance and allocated parking.
