An additional family bathroom serves the remaining accommodation.

The kitchen stairs lead down to a lower level of the home comprising a utility room, cloakroom, plant room and internal access to the double garage.

The mature rear garden can be accessed directly from the central terrace and offers a generous, private outdoor space.
