The open fireplace creates a lovely focal point for this warm and inviting room.The sitting room is located at the rear of the house with French doors overlooking the rear patio courtyard and onward garden. The open fireplace is another lovely focal point.The quirky dining room is a lovely space. Warm and inviting a log-burning stove sits in the large, painted brick fireplace. A window overlooks the rear patio courtyard and a door flows through to the kitchen making this a wonderful room for formal dining or enjoying food with family and friends.The superb galley style kitchen is fitted with a good range of wall and floor mounted cupboards, with pale wood work surfaces over.

There is a large storage cupboard housing the boiler and hot water tank and access to the attic space.The idyllic garden is a haven of peace and tranquillity. The terrace patio provides a superb flow from the internal accommodation to the pretty garden space.

A lovely silver birch stands tall at the bottom of the garden and a small feature pond adds further interest.N.B.
