The ground floor comprises of a large entrance hallway with a separate wc, open plan kitchen/diner and a very impressive and light filled living room/diner.
A real stand out feature to this wonderful property is the large sun terrace that leads off from the living room.
From here, views across the Torrs can be enjoyed, but there is also ample space for a dining table and chairs.
Moving up through the property on to the first floor, there are four bedrooms and a family bath/shower room. Bedrooms one and two enjoy superb views to the front elevation.
Outside there are well stocked gardens that surround the property which comprise of a selection of mature shrubs, attractive flowers and verdant vegetation.
For the keen gardener there is a lot of scope to really make this outside space your own.
There is off street parking, however there is potential to create further parking subject to the necessary consent. Underneath the property there is a large store room/work shop.
This area could be utilized a home office, gym or even a self-contained unit with letting potential subject to the necessary consent.
