A separate office offers a quiet space for working from home and leads into a particularly attractive garden room. This light-filled space features a vaulted and insulated roof with recessed lighting, a tiled floor, and French doors that open directly onto the garden.

The contemporary shower room is fitted with modern sanitary ware, including a wall-hung vanity basin, WC with concealed cistern, and a corner shower.

Energy efficiency is a key highlight, with an air source heating system, solar pv panels, and uPVC triple-glazed windows, all contributing to reduced running costs and a more environmentally friendly home.
