There are still a few finishing touches to be done that will allow you to add your own style and taste to truly make it your home. Many of the rooms have wood panelling, there are exposed floorboards, picture rails and traditional style fireplaces have been fitted - all adding to the warm and homely atmosphere. The central heating has been updated to a combination oil boiler with cast iron radiators and the kitchen has been fitted with a range of soft closing contemporary units with brass handles. The bathroom has also been updated with a stylish modern suite.

This lovely home has two good sized reception rooms, both with fireplaces and are perfect for spending time with family and friends, relaxing and chatting - making lifetime memories. Outside, there is a generously proportioned private rear garden that allows you to landscape to your own design and there is parking for one/two cars at the end of the garden.
