Further French doors lead into the conservatory, which in turn provides access to the paved terrace; perfect for entertaining and family life during the warmer months.

The ground floor is completed by a useful boiler cupboard with additional storage. Upstairs, there are four bedrooms, three of which benefit from fitted wardrobes.
