A rather special feature that sets Stephenson Place apart.

A modern, refitted shower room completes the first-floor accommodation. Double glazing and gas-fired central heating provide comfort throughout the seasons.

Whether you enjoy tending colourful pots and planters, sitting outside with a morning coffee or sharing lunch with friends on a sunny afternoon, there is ample room to make the garden your own.There is also space for a garden shed, ideal for storing tools and those little gardening essentials.
