The first floor hosts two excellent double bedrooms, complemented by a beautifully appointed four-piece family bathroom finished to an impressive standard.
Outside, the property enjoys a particularly impressive plot. A substantial frontage provides extensive off-road parking alongside a double garage with electric door. To the front, a large south-easterly facing terrace creates the perfect spot to enjoy the morning sunshine, while the private rear garden offers a wonderful space for relaxation, featuring a lawn, patio seating areas and mature surroundings.
