The property is in good condition throughout with a full array of fine features to appreciate, including extremely well proportioned and bright accommodation, delightful internal finishings, biomass central heating as well as a mix of uPVC double-glazing, replaced wooden sash and case double glazed windows and original sash and case windows.
