As you enter, you are greeted by an inviting entrance porch and hall, complete with two storage cupboards, perfect for coats and shoes. The living room is a comfortable and inviting space for relaxation and family gatherings, while the dining room is ideal for formal dining or as an office/play room. The long kitchen is well-equipped, offering plenty of counter space and one section is used as dedicated utility area for added convenience. At the rear of the house, you'll find a generous conservatory, providing a delightful space to enjoy the garden views in all seasons.
Upstairs, the first floor hosts two spacious and bright double bedrooms, a family bathroom that includes a separate double shower, and a smaller bedroom that is perfect as a child's room or a home office.
