The Property

The second reception room is of a similar size with terracotta tiled flooring and an inset wood-burning stove.
Situated at the rear of the property is a laundry room and the stairs to first floor level. There is no doubt that the heart of the home is the open plan kitchen/dining/living room, which was an addition to the property in 2006. This charming room has lovely vaulted ceilings and wide sliding doors which lead out onto the garden terrace and beyond. The kitchen is well equipped with ample unit space, an island with granite worktop and space for a number of appliances. Adjacent to the kitchen is a useful utility room, shower room with wc and a large double bedroom. The bedroom has wide sliding doors which lead out onto the terrace.
On the first floor are three bedrooms and the main family bathroom. Two of the bedrooms have lovely views over the gardens, both incorporating built in wardrobe cupboards. The bathroom comprises a rustic three piece suite including a wc, vanity hand wash basin and roll top bath. Please note that the bathroom forms part of a flying freehold over the neighbouring property.
