Double doors draw you into the dining room where an additional set of doors provide access to the rear garden. Light pours into the space providing a lovely space to gather the family at meal times. An archway leads from the dining room into a spacious kitchen/breakfast room where wooden cupboards with ample storage line the walls. Off the kitchen is a handy utility room.

On the first floor, where the views can be further enjoyed, are two spacious bedrooms and a large family bathroom. As with downstairs, the bedrooms both have built-in cupboards and offer flexibility for a home office and/or guest room. The family bathroom, which has been beautifully decorated with light blue geometric patterned tiles, has plenty of storage cupboards and a bath with a shower over. A door leads to a spacious walk-in wardrobe.

Outside, the spacious rear garden boasts a patio, with space for a table and chairs and a lawn. It backs onto the fields behind and provides a lush green space to entertain family and friends or to relax in.
