The lower level comprises: inner hallway; guest cloakroom; generous sized lounge with double doors though to the conservatory which has a pitched roof, twin French doors to garden and exposed brickwork; dining room with twin French doors to garden; and breakfasting kitchen.

The upper level comprises: landing; master bedroom with built-in wardrobes and Juliet style balcony with sliding door and en-suite shower room; bedroom two; bedroom three and main family bathroom. Both bathrooms are partial wet rooms.

The remarkably large rear garden adjoins woodland and therefore offers a high degree of privacy.
