Bedroom one is a wonderful double bedroom, with space for a king-sized bed and additional furniture.

To the rear of the property is a fully enclosed, well established cottage garden with summer house, equipped with lighting and electric - ideal for enjoying the warm, tranquil summer evenings. The garden has an abundance of beautiful flower beds and shrubs, with a pathway leading to the main garden which is partly laid to lawn. This space has a really inviting feel and could be changed to suit any prospective purchaser's requirements, if desired.

Within the garden, you can access the workshop/shed, two very useful rooms which could suit a variety of different uses, subject to requirements.

Beyond this, is a tandem garage, providing ample storage for vehicles. This can also be accessed from the rear via up-and-over doors, through a small gate.
