The separate dining room provides further flexible living space and leads through to the kitchen. The kitchen has been updated with a range of contemporary fitted units, work surfaces and integrated appliances, with a door providing access outside. A ground-floor cloakroom completes the accommodation on this level, while the integral garage can also be accessed internally from the house. Upstairs, the first floor provides five bedrooms. The principal bedroom is particularly impressive, with French doors opening to a Juliet balcony overlooking the rear garden. There are four further bedrooms, providing excellent flexibility for a growing family, home working or guest accommodation. The first floor is completed by a family bathroom and an additional shower room. Outside, the property benefits from a generous frontage providing off-road parking and access to the integral garage.
