Occupying the first floor, a large landing provides access to; a well-proportioned master bedroom with built in wardrobes, second double bedroom and four piece tiled family bathroom suite. Situated on the second floor, eaves storage is on offer with two further spacious bedrooms, with one having the added luxury of an en-suite shower room.

Outside, its owners boast a well-manicured low maintenance, south facing rear garden. Benefiting from maximum sunlight and offering a private and peaceful feel, it features a sizeable area laid to patio - ideal for outdoor seating/dining furniture. The remainder of the garden is laid with artificial lawn and perfect for those with a busy day-to-day lifestyle. If the above wasn't enough in itself, to the rear of the garden the most impressive of garden rooms awaits, benefiting from full power and currently utilised as a home office, with further uses such as a gymnasium or bar possible. The home office/garden room benefits from direct cat 5 cabling also.
