You enter the property from the street with steps up to a glazed front door opening into a large 38.25m², tiled kitchen/diner with attractive original features including stone apparent walls, exposed beams, stone sink, potager cupboard and a tall attractive fireplace with cast iron back-plate. To the right hand side is a kitchen area which has substantial fitted units in a country kitchen style with a ceramic butler sink and a chunky elm breakfast bar.

The private garden has established trees and shrubs along one side and overlooks a field to the other.

There is a boiler room, pool pump-house and two garden furniture stores in rooms attached. The house has central heating throughout.
