At the front of the house, a separate cosy lounge offers a quieter retreat, complete with a stained pine feature ceiling, cast iron radiator and bespoke built-in media unit. The fifth bedroom, currently used as a home office, benefits from fitted wardrobes, and the fourth bedroom is also located on the ground floor—ideal for guests or multi-generational living. A separate utility area offers practical storage and appliance space, while a modern wet room features a walk-in shower, wall-mounted WC and hand wash basin.

An elegant oak staircase with aluminium railings leads to the first floor, where three further well-proportioned bedrooms are located. The principal bedroom impresses with its spacious layout and a luxurious walk-in wardrobe.

A contemporary family shower room services the upper floor and includes a walk-in shower, wall-mounted WC, and a stylish vanity with integrated storage and hand wash basin.

A spacious patio area with pergola offers the perfect setting for outdoor dining and entertaining. The property also benefits from a one and a half length garage with electric up-and-over door, lighting, and power, along with additional utility space.
