Bedroom two is another good-sized room facing the road, which is currently in use as a double guest room.  The third bedroom is a single room which has been used as both a single child’s room or study, with built in desk and shelving.  The family bathroom, fully tiled on two sides, comprises an easy to clean, cream three-piece suite with modern waterfall shower over the bath.

This south facing enclosed balcony area, surrounded with attractive wrought iron railings, has space for seating or eating outdoors in the summer, with sun all day and into the evening.
