There is an attractive stone fireplace with wood-burning stove and door with stairs to the first floor. An inner lobby leads to a bedroom currently used as a study with side aspect windows and access into a well-appointed kitchen/breakfast room with wall and floor cupboards, wall-mounted Worcester Bosch gas boiler, induction hob, electric oven, integrated fridge/freezer, microwave and dishwasher. A side door leads to a utility room and ground floor bathroom with a modern white suite including a 'P' shaped bath with shower over and fully tiled walls and flooring with door into a former attached garage currently utilised as an additional bedroom.
