Fitted with a range of wood base and wall units, with under counter space for a washing machine and fridge and space for a free standing cooker with both electric and gas points available, so your choice which cooker you buy. A great space with adequate storage for all your pots and pans and food and work surfaces enough for all your cooking needs.

BEDROOM 1 3.92m x 3.02m (12'10" x 9'10")

BEDROOM 2 2.85m x 2.19m (9'4" x 7'2")
