On the first floor there are four bedrooms, an en suite bathroom, and a family shower room. One of the bedrooms has a staircase up to a loft room which could be used as an additional bedroom. The property is enclosed by a combination of mature hedgerow and timber fencing and has an in-out driveway providing parking for a minimum of ten cars with lawned areas with inset shrubs and trees either side. A gated access leads to the rear garden. Available end of July on an unfurnished basis
The kitchen/breakfast room has a range of oak fronted units and a separate island, with granite work surfaces incorporating an inset sink. A beamed recess houses a range cooker with additional storage either side, and there is a pantry under stairs which lead to the master bedroom. There are doors to the utility room/cloakroom and rear garden.
The rear garden is south easterly facing and is fully enclosed by timber fencing. An extensive paved patio spans the rear of the property and is separated from the lawned garden by a pergola with climbing plants. There is a further raised paved patio and two timber garden sheds.
