Description
The new floors, windows, and decoration in every room are a huge bonus meaning the house is future-proofed and ready to move into immediately. Our favorite feature has to be the sleek and stylish kitchen with its white gloss units and integrated appliances. There is also a separate entrance and lots of storage options.
There are three well-proportioned bedrooms with two excellent doubles and a nice single currently being used as a dressing room. The bathroom has also been updated and will appeal to modern tastes.
