Ahead of the driveway is a white garage door however this only opens to a storage room as the garage has been part-converted to allow for the family room.

The rear garden is a delightful area for the family to relax in private.

From the hallway there is the staircase leading up to the first floor and a door through to the main reception area.

The lounge and dining area have been opened to create one large room with clear areas for each. The lounge is toward the rear of the house having an attractive electric fireplace mounted to the right wall and French doors opening out to the patio. An opening to the rear of the dining area accesses a stylish, modern galley kitchen. The suite features hi-gloss cream facias with wood effect work surfaces. Set within the suite is a chest height oven, four-burner gas hob and overhead extractor fan. There are clear spaces for a fridge freezer, washing machine and tumble dryer or dishwasher.

The bedrooms comprise of two great-sized double bedrooms and a generous single bedroom. The largest of the three is positioned at the rear of the house looking over the garden.
