Multiple outside electric sockets and a water tap serve the garden area. The home office (formed from a large section of the original garage) has been expertly finished with insulation, a roof lantern, dry lining, double glazed windows and door with integrated blind. The room has full power supply and set up for a wall-mounted TV, with oak flooring and electric heating creating an exceptional and comfortable workspace. Part of the original garage remains in place, with electric roller door and newly fitted side door, offering ever useful outdoor storage.
