A feature staircase leads to the lower level, where the main living accommodation has been designed with modern living in mind. The open-plan layout creates a sociable space that flows effortlessly between the lounge, dining area and contemporary fitted kitchen, making it equally suited to relaxing at home or entertaining family and friends. The main bathroom is also located on this level.
Outside, the property benefits from an allocated parking space within a secure gated car park, providing the added convenience of private parking in such a central location. Further advantages include gas central heating, excellent storage throughout and the reassurance of being offered to the market with no onward chain.
