From the hallway, there is also access to the ground floor wet room, which includes a low-level WC, a wall-mounted wash hand basin, a shower area, and a window to the side.

The entrance hall flows into the main living area, a striking open-plan kitchen/living/dining room designed to take full advantage of the views across the landscaped rear garden, an ideal setting for entertaining or family living. The living and dining zone benefits from Velux windows, a partially open gabled ceiling, side windows, and bi-fold doors that lead directly onto the rear terrace, filling the room with natural light.

Integrated appliances include an oven, grill, combination oven/grill/microwave, dishwasher, fridge, and freezer. An induction hob with Silverline extractor is set within the breakfast/preparation area. A door from the kitchen opens into the utility room, which provides additional built-in storage, a stainless steel sink, space and plumbing for appliances, and houses the gas-fired boiler.

Bedroom one overlooks the rear garden and features an en suite shower room with a low-level WC, wash hand basin, and wet-room-style shower, along with a rear-aspect window.
