A ceiling rose around the main light and coved ceiling means the home retains some of its period charm. A door from the lounge leads into a second reception room.

The dining room accommodates the stairs rising to the first-floor landing and also provides access to a large under stairs storage cupboard. The current owner also uses this room as an office with a desk and chair. An open doorway from the dining room leads into the kitchen.

The kitchen is well-appointed with an extensive range of base and wall-mounted fitted units with roll-edge work surfaces and a one and a half bowl stainless steel sink and drainer. Integral appliances include a gas hob with extractor over, built-in electric oven and fridge/freezer.

The shower room comprises a three-piece suite to include a large walk-in shower cubicle, low flush WC and pedestal wash hand basin.

To the first floor, the principal bedroom is the larger of the two rooms and situated toward the front of the home. There is plenty of space for a range of freestanding wardrobe and drawers.
