This room offers ample space for a breakfast table and chairs, with a double-glazed window overlooking the rear garden and a part-glazed door leading to the covered side way.<br/><br/>A turning staircase with exposed balustrades leads to the first-floor landing, which is bright and airy with a double-glazed window to the front. The landing provides access to three well-sized bedrooms.<br/><br/>Bedroom Two is particularly impressive, offering ample space with a double-glazed bay window to the front and attractive wood flooring. Bedroom Three, another spacious double, enjoys views over the rear garden and benefits from a fitted double wardrobe.
