The property has been extended to create an impressive open-plan kitchen/dining room, forming the heart of the home. The kitchen is fitted with an extensive range of cabinetry incorporating integrated appliances, together with further space for freestanding appliances. The room offers an excellent sense of light and space, with ample room for a substantial dining table and seating area.

Adjoining the kitchen is a versatile converted garage, enjoying a dual aspect and offering excellent flexibility as an additional reception room, guest bedroom, home office or hobby room.

The two bedrooms are situated to the front of the property. The principal bedroom is a particularly spacious double room, while the second bedroom benefits from a range of built-in wardrobes. These are served by a well-appointed family bathroom.
Further practical features include three useful storage cupboards within the hallway, one of which houses the boiler.

A garden shed offers useful additional storage, while gated side access leads directly to the covered car port.
To the front of the property, a generous driveway provides ample off-street parking for several vehicles, complemented by an enclosed car port offering sheltered parking for one vehicle.
