With its dual-aspect outlook and versatile layout, this room provides an ideal retreat and serves as a superb principal bedroom within the home.
Bedroom two is a well-proportioned double, enjoying a front aspect window that brings in good natural light and offers a pleasant outlook. The room benefits from fitted wardrobes, providing practical storage while helping to maximise the available floor space. Its generous size makes it versatile enough to accommodate a double bed alongside additional furnishings, offering plenty of scope to style it as either a comfortable guest room, a child’s bedroom, or even a home office if required.
Bedroom Three is a bright and comfortable room positioned to the rear of the property, with a window that looks out across the garden and beyond. The rear aspect provides a sense of privacy and a pleasant outlook, making it an inviting space. Well-sized, it works well as a child’s bedroom, guest room, or even a study, offering flexibility depending on household needs. Its simple layout makes it easy to furnish and personalise, while the natural light ensures it feels welcoming throughout the day.
The first floor is completed by a well-sized family bathroom, fitted with a three-piece suite comprising a panelled bath, pedestal wash hand basin, and low-level WC. A rear aspect window allows natural light to filter through, giving the room a fresh and open feel, while full-height tiling provides both practicality and a clean, neutral finish.

Outside- The property is approached through a five-bar gate, opening onto a tarmacked driveway that provides ample parking and access to a useful detached car port. From here, a paved pathway leads across the front garden, which is predominantly laid to lawn and includes a second stone workshop. A charming feature well adds character to this area, while steps gently descend to the front door. To the side, a particularly generous garden extends, again mainly laid to lawn, bordered by mature hedging, fencing and stone walling for both privacy and shelter. A greenhouse is tucked away here, ideal for those with an interest in gardening or home-grown produce. The rear garden is more compact and features a shrubbed area along with a garden shed, once again enclosed by fencing and stone walling. Altogether, the outside space provides a wonderful mix of practical and attractive areas, perfectly complementing the accommodation and offering plenty of scope for landscaping, hobbies or simply relaxing outdoors.
