With a lovely high ceiling adding to the sense of space, the lounge is an inviting room in which to spend time with family and friends. A Georgian fretted uPVC window overlooks the front and adds a superb amount of character. The focal point for the room is a stunning original inglenook fireplace with an impressive stone slab hearth supporting a wood burner, which entices you to sit before it during those cooler months. A recessed space beneath the stairs offers excellent storage potential.

A sliding door opens to the kitchen located to the rear of the property. The characterful kitchen offers a good number of wall and base units with a sage green-coloured laminate door complemented by a wood-effect laminate work surface.
