A glazed leaded door leads to the rear hall which has a door to the garden and stairs rising to the galleried landing with exposed oak frame work to the walls and ceiling. A ledge and board door accesses a cloakroom beyond which is a snug/bedroom.

The bedrooms are served by a family bathroom which has a matching suite with shower over the bath and there is further storage to the landing.

The gardens are delightful and laid out in a cottage style with an extensive terrace running the full width of the property that can be accessed via the kitchen and rear hall. Beyond this are densely stocked herbaceous borders which are flanked by a large expanse of lawn.
