Natural light radiated through the two bay windows in the lounge to provide an inviting living area, with access to the ground floor bedroom and adjoining shower room, ideal for guests or flexible family use. A dedicated study room overlooking the lawn is the perfect spot for home working, whilst the self-contained annexe is to the rear of the property and offering additional living space.
