The modern family bathroom features a four-piece suite finished to a high standard. A partially boarded loft provides useful additional storage and the potential for conversion, subject to planning permission.

Outside, the rear garden extends to around 120ft and is designed for both relaxation and entertaining. A large patio sits directly off the conservatory, leading to a lawn surrounded by mature shrubs and flowerbeds. A pergola-covered seating area, summer house, and large storage shed complete this charming outdoor space. The garden backs onto Halstead’s historic water tower, offering a uniquely picturesque backdrop.
