This light-filled sociable setting has a bay window recess and glazed sliding door which offers access to the balcony extending the living space to the outside. The adjoining kitchen is fitted with modern wall and base level cabinetry with ancillary space provided by a ground floor utility room which offers additional storage and a home for domestic appliances.

The second floor accommodation comprises four flexible-use rooms and a modern family bathroom. The principal bedroom enjoys the benefit of access to an en suite shower room, with a further shower facility situated on the ground floor. On this lower level, the former garage is currently arranged to provide accommodation/storage with the addition of a built in sauna.

Outside

At the frontage of the property, there is access to a car port, with a door at the back of this parking shelter leading into a lower level hallway and from here into a rear garden courtyard via glazed sliding doors. A timber fence encloses this outdoor setting which is gravelled and features a spiral stairway providing a route up to the south facing balcony which has been newly restored. With a timber slat design, this elevated spot is also accessible from the first floor living area and offers a spot to sit and relax whilst enjoying the south-easterly aspect.
