Property description

The kitchen area is well equipped with a range of fitted units and integrated appliances with an adjacent utility/boot room. On the first floor there are four bedrooms with distinctive period features and views over the gardens. A jack and Jill shower room serves two bedrooms with the ground floor bathroom serving the remaining two.
