An additional feature is the study/office, providing a dedicated workspace for your professional needs.

The property has undergone significant improvements in recent years, including the installation of new windows, including the conservation of double glazing for the front bay windows, while a new boiler (installed three years ago) ensures efficient heating. An alarm system provides security, and new front and back doors enhance both aesthetics and safety. The landscaped gardens, adorned with bespoke wrought iron fencing, showcase the pride taken in maintaining this residence. The rear garden is a true oasis, complete with charming planters, a welcoming patio area, and a convenient shed.
