Front Exterior - The exterior of the property presents a tidy and welcoming facade, constructed in yellow brick with a dark tiled roof. A covered entrance porch is approached by a ramp, and there is ample communal parking spaces available. Neat flowerbeds and shrubbery add a touch of colour and charm to the front garden area.
Living Room - A comfortable living room with a soft blue carpet and neutral walls that create a calm atmosphere. The room includes seating arranged around a modern wall-mounted heater, and the space opens through to the kitchen area, making it ideal for relaxed living and socialising.
Kitchen - A well-appointed kitchen featuring sleek white cabinetry with integrated appliances including a double oven and space for a fridge freezer. The black work surfaces provide contrast and ample preparation space, complemented by a practical laminate floor and a simple tiled splashback. Open shelving adds a touch of character and display area.
Bedroom - A bedroom with a cosy feel, featuring a large bed with a padded headboard and soft bedding. The room is carpeted in a warm shade and benefits from natural light through a window fitted with dark curtains.
