The house and garden enjoys an enviable position, backing onto neighbouring gardens of an adjoining road. Similarly, from its elevated position beautiful sunsets can be enjoyed in a westerly direction from the front rooms. There is driveway parking for two cars side by side together with a small front garden and a single garage. Ground Floor: reception hall, sitting room, dining room, open-plan kitchen/breakfast/utility room, separate wc.
