The rear aspect dining room is directly adjacent to and in between the sitting room and kitchen/breakfast room and has a further bowed window and views over the rear garden.
The kitchen/breakfast room also has views over the rear garden and comprises of eye and base level units with contrasting work surfaces, some of which are glass-fronted and have lighting, a double sink unit, space for appliances and an additional storage cupboard.
