There are a further two reception rooms, and a study.

The main living room, spanning the depth of the property, sits to the east side of the property with a dual aspect, a built in electric fire and French doors opening out to the garden. The second reception room, the garden room, sits to the rear with glazing on all sides and another set of French doors opening out to the patio and garden beyond.

A rear hallway runs from the living room across the back of the house providing access to the downstairs cloakroom and flowing into the dining kitchen. The kitchen itself has beautiful exposed stone walls, beams to the ceiling and a comprehensive range of fitted units with space for appliances, a stable door out to the patio and a side porch providing access to the private driveway and double garage.

There are two further bedrooms to the second floor, one generously sized with an ensuite shower room, the second, a smaller room that is currently used for storage but could be utilised as a single bedroom.
