Heading up the stairs and onto the spacious landing you are presented with access to all four bedrooms, the family bathroom and airing cupboard. Starting off in the master bedroom and what a great sized room this is, the room is front facing and has the advantage of built in storage too. The room also features a large en suite featuring a 4 piece bathroom suite comprising of shower over bath, low level WC, bidet and wash basin.

On from the paved area is an expansive area of lawn landscaped into two tiers, and over the hedge at the rear of the property are green fields and you are not overlooked which makes this perfect for those seeking a quiet and private garden space. The garden also offers side access to the double garage which offers more than enough space for two vehicles or could be utilised as a workshop, home gym, storage or subject to relevant planning, could be converted into additional living space as other nearby properties have done.
