At the front of the ground floor there is also a useful study for home working, while at the rear, further space in which to relax includes the sunny conservatory with its panoramic views across the garden. Adjoining the conservatory, the well-equipped, generous kitchen and breakfast room is an open, social space with wooden fitted units, a range cooker with an extractor hood, space for a breakfast table and French doors opening onto the garden. Also on the ground floor is a double bedroom with an en suite bathroom, ideal for use as a guest bedroom.

Upstairs there are five well-presented bedrooms, including the principal bedroom with its en suite shower-room. Three of the four additional bedrooms are also en suite, while the 6th bedroom is a single which could also be ideal as a nursery or a study.

Summer Cottage sits in a generous corner plot extending to approximately 0.5 acres. At the front of the property, the garden is lined by white picket fencing, with the entrance opening onto the driveway, where there is parking space for several vehicles. The garage provides further parking, while the canopy linking the garage to the main house acts as a carport for additional covered parking.

The garden is mostly to the rear, and features beautiful, level lawns, bordered by a variety of mature trees. There is also an area of timber decking which is accessible via the sitting room and kitchen/breakfast room, and provides the ideal setting for al fresco dining.
