The first floor offers four double bedrooms, the principal suite benefitting from an en suite shower room and a dressing room. The second bedroom also has an en suite shower room whilst the two further bedrooms are served by the family bathroom.

OUTSIDE
To the front of the house is a gravelled parking area, with a detached double garage to the left and adjoining store room. A pathway to the front door is flanked on both sides by an area of lawn. The side of the house provides access around to the rear garden which is predominantly laid to lawn, bordered by well established shrubs and trees which offer a good degree of seclusion. Doors from both the kitchen and the dining room open out on to an elevated terrace, perfect for entertaining, which has steps down to the lawn. At the rear of the garden is a pretty summer house, which is almost 20' in width, a most useful outbuilding which could serve as a home office, gym or a garden/entertaining room.
