Bedroom two is another spacious king-size room, while bedroom three to the rear fits a double bed with ease. Bedroom four offers flexibility as a single bedroom, nursery, or home office.

The family bathroom, fully upgraded in 2022, has been completely tiled and features a stunning free-standing bathtub, creating a luxurious and relaxing space with a clean, modern design.
