The guest bedroom has an en suite and walk-in wardrobe, and the other two bedrooms have wardrobes and share a first floor shower room. The gardens are a particular feature. A sweeping driveway provides extensive parking and access to the three car garage. To the rear is an enclosed courtyard which has a raised koi pond and a detached timber framed home office.
