The adjoining meals area flows effortlessly into the front living room, where natural light pours in, complemented by plantation shutters and a cosy wood-burning fireplace.
Accommodation is versatile, with the front bedroom offering plantation shutters and extensive built-in robes. Two additional bedrooms provide flexibility as separate sleeping quarters or a combined bedroom with study or nursery, also featuring built-in storage. The family bathroom showcases striking green tiles, a vanity with storage, and a bath, with a separate toilet adding convenience for busy households.
A tiled sunroom connects to the laundry and opens out to an exceptional outdoor entertaining domain.
