On the ground floor, the sitting room is filled with natural light coming from the two multi-pane windows which both have deep sills and pleasant outlooks. The focal point of this room is the working open fireplace with timber surround and tiled hearth. The equally attractive dining room also has a multi pane window with a deep sill and rear garden views.

The kitchen has a fitting country cottage style look with cream coloured units and dark wood effect laminate work surfaces that form an L-shape. The room is sizable enough to accommodate a table and chairs. Leading on from the kitchen is a bright conservatory with glazed timber windows to three sides and a door to the rear garden. On the first floor, there are three good sized bedrooms and a family bathroom.

Outside, there's a delightful cottage style garden with panelled fencing and mature hedges enabling a good degree of seclusion. The circular lawn is edged by a raised flower and shrub border filled with a range of mature plants. From here, a path continues down to a shaded seating area. There is also a gravelled courtyard area with mature planting and a most pleasing pergola dining area.
The property benefits from off road parking for two vehicles.
