A further staircase rises to a sizeable loft conversion, where the principal bedroom measures an impressive 15’9” x 15’8” and benefits from its own en suite shower room.
The detached one-bedroom annexe is finished to a high standard. The accommodation includes an open-plan kitchen/sitting area, double bedroom, and modern bathroom. Ideal for guests, extended family, or as an income-generating rental, the annexe is serviced by its own lpg gas central heating system.
