To the first floor, the landing leads to three well-proportioned double bedrooms, all offering versatile accommodation suitable for family living, guest rooms, or home office use. The family bathroom serves all three bedrooms and comprises a suite designed to meet the needs of modern living.

A particular feature of this property is the useful cellar, which offers fantastic additional space and could be utilised for a variety of purposes, subject to any necessary consents. Whether used for storage, a workshop, hobby room, home gym, or potential further development, the cellar provides valuable flexibility rarely found in properties of this type.
