The dual aspect principal bedroom has an en-suite shower room. There are three further bedrooms and a contemporary family bathroom.

This is bordered by a brick retaining wall and has two sets of steps down to the main garden which has a further paved seating area, and a combination of lawn, gravel areas, and shaped borders with an assortment of plants and shrubs. The garden is enclosed by timber fencing and mature trees and shrubs on the boundary provide additional screening.
