• Two further double-sized bedrooms, one with a fitted wardrobe, the other with ample space for wardrobes/ancillary furniture

externally:
• The wrap-around cottage style garden is a stand-out feature of the property having been lovingly established over many years. Hedged and fenced, the garden blends an area of lawn with a myriad of mature planting designed to offer colour, variety and interest through the seasons. Established azaleas and rhododendrons nestle amongst a mixture of herbaceous perennials, interspersed with roses and specimen trees, to include a magnificent Japanese maple and twisted hazel. A sheltered paved terrace offers a ideal spot to relax, dine and entertain in peace and seclusion surrounded by an attractive leafy backdrop. A further shingled area of garden gives rise to a small vegetable patch and tucked away area ideal for a rotary dryer. Conveniently, the garden benefits from water taps and external power points to both the north and south elevations
• Attractive and useful, original outbuilding – historically used as a laundry room with sink and plumbing for a washing machine – currently used for storage, yet offering scope to be utilised as a workshop or perhaps modified as an additional space for home-working away from the main accommodation
• Driveway offering side-by-side parking for two vehicles
