To the left of the house is a secure gate that opens to a passage that leads past the house to a generous rear garden. The garden begins with a slabbed patio laid around the house to provide plenty of room for an outdoor furniture set. It continues down to the lawn which covers most of the ground space and is bordered by mature trees and attractive shrubs. A wooden shed is positioned at the far end of the garden and there is a combination of tall wooden fencing and brick wall to the boundaries.

The rear living room also has a bay, but this one includes a set of French doors that open to the patio. Shelving is included beside the chimney breast in both reception rooms.

The kitchen is outstanding and features a modern navy blue suite with Minerva carra white work surfaces. Concealed within the units are a dishwasher, double refrigerator and a double freezer in addition to the chest height double oven, four burner gas hob and overhead extractor fan which are visually integrated. A one-and-a-half bowl sink with drainer is positioned in front of the large window that allows in lots of natural light.
