The real hub of the house is the semi open plan style lounge, kitchen, dining room. These three rooms are all separate spaces, with a flowing layout creating an open feel. The forward facing lounge floods the property with light and allows access to the balcony. The modern gloss white kitchen comes complete with integrated appliances and a bespoke breakfast bar, whilst the large conservatory to the rear creates a fantastic dining area allowing access to the back garden.
