A wide entrance hall with a built-in cloaks cupboard sets a practical tone. The dual-aspect living room (north and east) feels cool and comfortable through the warmer months, and opens to a private patio where you can sit out and catch the afternoon sun. The kitchen is pleasantly bright with two large windows, cream shaker-style cupboards, space for a table and chairs, and the usual integrated appliances (including oven, microwave, fridge/freezer, washer/dryer and dishwasher).
The bedroom is a generous double with a five-door fitted wardrobe, providing excellent storage. The shower room features step-free access and includes a built-in utility cupboard for cleaning kit and linens—keeping everything neatly out of sight.
