Sliding doors provide access to the conservatory with doors opening out to the garden. The kitchen sits adjacent with modern gloss wall and base units and a range of integrated appliances.

Stairs rise to the first floor and four double bedrooms are spread across a split level, with steps leading down to one of the bedrooms. The family bathroom is generous and includes a large enclosed shower and there is a separate WC.

Please note planning permission was granted in 2008 for a two-storey extension and enlargement of the existing roof, which would provide five bedrooms served by three bathrooms. Further information can be found via the online planning portal.

Externally the garden is south-facing and enjoys sun throughout much of the day yet retains a high degree of privacy due to various mature trees, leafy hedging and fencing. There are a number of terraces accessed from several points around the garden and provide a perfect space for al fresco dining
