The lounge is a comfortable and inviting reception room, enhanced by a bay window which brings in plenty of natural light. A log burner fireplace creates an attractive focal point and adds warmth and character to the space.
To the rear is a modern kitchen/diner, designed as a sociable heart of the home. The kitchen is fully integrated and offers a stylish range of fitted cabinetry and work surfaces, together with ample space for dining. Doors open directly onto the rear garden, providing a natural connection between the indoor and outdoor living areas and making the space particularly well suited to entertaining and family gatherings. A useful ground-floor WC and storage complete the ground-floor accommodation.
