One of the reception rooms could easily be used as a third bedroom in addition to the existing two double bedrooms, bathroom and separate shower room. The property has retained features associated with the 1930's era including good ceiling heights, picture rails, panelled internal doors etc.

On the outside the bungalow is set back from Horsecombe Brow behind a pretty front garden with a larger garden on the northern side of the property comprising a driveway, leading to detached timber garage and workshop with mature lawns, shrub borders, timber summer house and decking.
