Positioned at the front of the property, a grand front reception room (currently being used as a dining room), is the epitome of period elegance, with a magnificent corniced ceiling, west facing bay window and splendid fireplace; equipped with a living-flame gas fire. To the rear, is the family sitting room, overlooking the easy maintenance walled rear garden and conveniently placed next to the kitchen with direct access.

A further door, gives access to a functional utility room and a stylish shower room, plus a back door to the private walled rear garden. Returning to the hall, stairs lead up to a bright and airy 1st floor landing, where there are three excellent double bedrooms, with the master featuring outstanding proportions, a magnificent bay window and a feature fireplace. A WC (currently being used as a storage area) completes this floor. Upstairs to the top (second floor), is a further double bedroom and a contemporary four piece bathroom, finished in sleek grey ceramic tiling, and comprises a shower over-bath, a vanity basin cabinet, a bidet and a WC.
