Completing the ground floor is a cloakroom with WC and separate utility room with additional fitted cupboards and space for laundry appliances.

Large expanses of lawn provide ample recreation space for children and pets, while a selection of raised vegetable beds, a greenhouse and a substantial timber shed provide facilities for any keen gardeners. Those looking for a tranquil rural retreat will certainly appreciate the unique position of this home which offers simply breath-taking open aspects for nature lovers.
