A log burner in a recessed fireplace provides warmth and focus to the room. Glazed double doors open into the dining room which is itself open to the kitchen area.

The kitchen and dining room are fitted with contemporary units of base and wall mounted cupboards and drawers, with solid wooden work surfaces and integrated appliances (fridge freezer, mid-height oven and dishwasher). A range style cooker with glazed splashback and extractor fan complete the room. Matching units also fit out the utility, with concealed boiler, washing machine and tumble drier. Two bedrooms, a recently fitted shower room and separate Cloaks/WC complete the ground floor. The master bedroom suite provides the 'wow factor' to the first floor, with the bedroom itself extending to 19'4", complemented by a generous dressing room with built in wardrobes and a refitted en-suite shower room. The remaining three bedrooms are all generous doubles, with one being en-suite. The fully tiled family bathroom features a roll top bath and separate shower cubicle.
