Spanning the rear of the house, the kitchen and dining room extend into the conservatory, providing additional space for meals or gatherings.

Upstairs, the principal bedroom suite is a large double room built into the dormer loft space. A wide picture window brings in plenty of natural light, and the en suite is similar in style to the bathroom below. The eaves provide additional storage with access through full-height doors.Outside, the garden is a good size for families looking to add play equipment or enjoy outdoor activities. It also works well for summer barbecues and gatherings, benefiting from a west-facing aspect that catches the evening sun.
