The living room is a good size and opens into a large conservatory overlooking the garden which provides an additional living space. On the first floor are the 4 bedrooms and the family bathroom.

Outside, the house is set back from the road with a pathway across the front. Access is gained to the garage and parking a few metres up the hill over a driveway adjacent to the neighbouring house.
