The breakfast kitchen has windows to two elevations and sliding doors out to the rear patio and garden allowing plenty of light. There is a good range of fitted units with ample space for appliances and a breakfast bar creating a natural divide between kitchen and dining. Behind the kitchen there is a utility room offering further storage, space for white goods, a door out to the side of the property and a door into the integral double garage.

A door from the kitchen opens into the dining room that has another set of sliding doors out to the rear garden and steps up through an archway into the living room. The living room spans the depth of the property with a large bay window to the front, sliding doors to the rear and a stone-built fireplace with an open fire.

The ground floor is completed by a downstairs cloakroom.

Outside - Copperfield sits almost to the centre of its plot of just over a third of an acre with a large front garden and gravelled driveway providing ample off-road parking and access to the double garage with up and over doors. The front garden is hedged or fenced on all sides with a variety of specimen trees providing year-round interest. Steps up from the driveway lead to a large, covered porch and the front door.
