On the lower ground floor is a large utility room with generous built in storage.

To the first floor are four bedrooms and the family bathroom. The principal bedroom is an excellent size and features an en suite shower room and built-in wardrobes.

Outside, the rear garden is tranquil and private with a York stone terrace, area of lawn, well stocked flower beds and is particularly well screened by a number of mature and specimen trees. There is a useful storage shed and a greenhouse discreetly positioned at the end of the garden.

A notable feature of the property is the detached annexe. There is a kitchen / reception area and a mezzanine floor presented as a bedroom. A shower room can be found to the rear and a useful store can be accessed from outside. This is a wonderful space and would be ideally suited to guests, grown up children or an Airbnb opportunity.

Parking is available on the driveway with space for two vehicles.
