Oak doors and trims have been installed as has double glazing in hardwood frames. The house is warmed by underfloor heating, served by a Worcester oil fired boiler. Outside, the house stands side on to the quiet road that passes through the village. Pedestrians approach via a meandering gravel path leading to the front door and porch. To the rear, a gravelled driveway provides parking and vehicular access to the double garage. Beyond the driveway there is a private and sheltered, walled courtyard, a decked seating area, perfect for outdoor eating and entertaining; steps lead up to a raised, lawned garden with pleasant views towards the church.
