Appliances include an Britannia range cooker with double oven and gas hob with extractor over and an integrated fridge freezer and freestanding dishwasher.

A utility room sits between the kitchen and sitting room and has a range of storage options, SMEG washing machine, separate tumble dryer and sink.

For guests there are two additional bedrooms on the first floor, both of which benefit from an en suite shower room.
The gardens are well established at the house and are mainly laid to lawn, but flanked on each side by a mature hedge and a variety of shrubs and trees. Nearer the house is a large paved area which is a lovely area to enjoy outdoor dining. A gravel path on the west side of the house leads to a garden shed. To the south is the Eden Water which provides a rich habitat for wildlife and also offers trout fishing. On the north side of the house the garden is enclosed by the original wall of the garden. A driveway leads through into a large parking area and there are further lawns and a terrace. There is also a garage which has electricity and a car charging point.
