configured in such a way that it would be possible to create split the

conservatory, with views over the gardens.

space and plumbing provision for a dishwasher. Through the kitchen is the
family dining room, a spacious area which will fit a large table as well as
sofas etc. Off the dining room is a generous utility room, with cloakroom/WC.
Two sets of stairs lead to the first floor, the original property stairs rise
from the lounge to a landing, off which is the refitted bathroom, having both
bath and separate shower, with WC and wash hand basin set into a vanity unit.
This part of the house is finished with two bedrooms. Off the dining room is a
second staircase leading to the first floor, where there is a guest bedroom
having a modern en - suite shower room.
