The staircase rises from the kitchen to the first floor, with useful under-stairs storage.
To the first floor, the property offers two bedrooms, comprising a generous double bedroom with fitted wardrobes set within the alcoves, and a second single bedroom which would also serve perfectly as a home office, enjoying fantastic elevated views. The accommodation is completed by a bathroom fitted with a panelled bath with electric shower over, wash basin and WC, finished with tiled elevations and additional over-stairs storage housing the Main gas combination boiler.
Externally, the property benefits from on-street parking to the front, while to the rear there is a private, enclosed walled yard.
