Entering the property via a part glazed composite door the hall has attractive half panelled walls and stairs rise to the first floor with a full height storage cupboard under. Situated at the end of the hall there is a cloakroom with a suite of wash basin, wc, and ceramic tiling. To the right of the hall lies the sitting room which has a feature panelled wall with recess for flat screen television and a window to the front. Lying to the left a second living room is an ideal TV room or good size study/office and has a window to the front aspect.

Spanning the width of the house with bi-folding doors to the garden, the kitchen/diner/family room is a great social and entertaining room. The kitchen is fitted with a smart range of modern flush-fitting base, wall and larder units with a breakfast bar area and sink unit with Quooker instant hot/boiling water tap. All the work surfaces are finished in quartz and integrated appliances include two Neff Hide and Slide ovens, microwave, dish washer, wine cooler, full length fridge and separate freezer and an induction hob.
