There is ample space for all your seating and media needs.

You'll find a small breakfast bar which matches the work surfaces and with tile splash backs to the cupboard tops and hob and a tiled floor, any spillages or splashes whilst whipping up your evening meals are easy to clean away.

UTILITY AREA 2.47m x 0.90m (8'1" x 2'11")

BATHROOM 1.37m x 1.97m (4'5" x 6'5")
This is fitted with a modern white three piece suite comprising of a push button w/c, pedestal wash hand basin and bath. The bath is a spa bath with corner tap so a lie down is not impaired and with a hand held shower attachment it makes for easy hair washing. If you haven't the time to pamper yourself with a soak in the tub then you will find a shower fitted above with a large rainfall shower head. The room is fully tiled so easy to mop up any splashes or drips and with a wall mounted towel radiator, a warm towel is to hand when getting out of the tub. This isn't the biggest room in the house but definitely gives you a feel of luxury.
