Designed to provide an elegant and practical environment for both living and entertaining, with neutral décor throughout, the accommodation flows from a welcoming split-level reception hall. Stairs lead down to the reception wing hallway, where a useful modern cloakroom gives access to a spacious, dual-aspect sitting room featuring a large side-aspect bay, an angled corner fireplace, and full-height glazing incorporating French doors to the rear terrace. There is also a generous, dual-aspect dining room and an L-shaped kitchen/breakfast room with tiled flooring, a range of contemporary wooden wall and base units including a breakfast bar, complementary quartz work surfaces, modern integrated appliances, and a glazed door to the side aspect. From the remaining level of the reception hallway, at front door level, the ground floor accommodation is completed by a bedroom wing. This includes a generous, L-shaped, rear-aspect principal bedroom overlooking the garden, with fitted storage and a modern en suite bathroom, along with a further front-aspect double bedroom with en suite facilities, also configured to provide a useful utility room.

Stairs rise from the reception hall to the first floor which houses the property’s three remaining well-proportioned bedrooms, two with extensive fitted storage and the third currently configured for use as an office, together with a contemporary fully-tiled family shower room.
