This accommodation consists of a recently renovated fitted kitchen, complete with underfloor heating, along with a generous living/dining room with large feature fireplace and a multi-fuel wood burner. Stairs off the lounge/diner & one of the bedrooms, lead up into an impressive, newly refurbished sunroom. Created on a split-level setting, the sunroom with solid roof provides a sanctuary overlooking the rear garden. Bedrooms three and four, a utility/laundry room and the family bathroom with jacuzzi bath and double width shower, complete downstairs.

Stairs to the first floor lead to a landing and seating area with Juliette balcony.
