A separate utility room supplements the kitchen with a quiet space for laundry. The ground floor is completed by a three-piece shower room and a versatile single bedroom that could work equally well as an office. The three remaining bedrooms are upstairs off a naturally-lit landing. These bedrooms are bright and spacious doubles, two of which also benefit from generous built-in wardrobes. They are served by a bathroom, fitted with a three-piece suite and a shower over bath. Oil-fired central heating and double glazing ensure year-round comfort.

Outside, the home boasts substantial mature gardens that wraparound two sides of the property. Mostly laid to lawn and with established hedgerows for privacy, the gardens further boast a sunny, southeast-facing aspect. An integrated double garage and a multi-car driveway provide extensive private parking for several vehicles.
