The Kitchen area is fitted with a range of wall and base units with work surfaces over and cupboards and drawers under incorporating a single drainer sink unit with mixer tap, double oven with extractor over, space for fridge, mosaic tiled splashback and window sill and two feature slate shelves. The Sitting Room is an excellent room, enjoying plenty of natural light from the window to the front, in addition to a feature fireplace with exposed stone chimney breast and a wood burning stove set on a slate tiled hearth.

Stairs rise from the entrance hall to the First Floor Landing which has a window to the rear, an airing cupboard and doors to all upstairs rooms. Bedroom 2 has a window to the front, exposed floorboards and convenient space for a desk, wardrobes or chest of drawers. The Bathroom has a window to the rear and is fitted with a matching suite comprising panelled bath, low level WC, pedestal hand basin with mirror-fronted cabinet over and fully tiled shower cubicle with electric shower. The walls are half tiled and there is also a heated towel rail. The Box Room has a window to the landing and could be a useful office space or storage room. Three steps lead from the landing up to Bedroom 1 which is a spacious, dual aspect room with windows to front and rear, exposed floorboards and a feature fireplace with decorative surround, cast iron insert and slate hearth.
