The present owners have a refurbished kitchen and bathrooms, remodelled the sitting room, and landscaped parts of the gardens to create a terraced garden with several seating areas. The parking at the front has been expanded to create space for four cars. The accommodation includes a new porch with a door and stairs down to garage, a hall, a sitting room, and a kitchen which is open plan to the dining room. There are three double bedrooms and a principal suite. Gated access at the side leads to a rear patio, sheltered by a brick wall and with steps up to split level lawned gardens. The upper garden also has a decked seating area. The drive has parking for up to four cars. Steps and a ramp lead up to a front terrace and the front door.
