A staircase from the sitting room accesses an upstairs landing leading to the two double bedrooms on the first floor. Further steps lead to the four piece family bathroom, which includes a stand alone roll top bath, a separate shower and a built-in cupboard.
The hard landscaped front garden has flower and shrub borders and there is a south westerly facing, enclosed courtyard garden at the rear with a parking space.
