At the heart of this detached dormer bungalow is a conservatory-style extension that overlooks and opens onto the rear garden deck, functioning as both a relaxed and informal family living area as well as a space for entertainment space.

The 142sq m (1,530sq ft) of space is cleverly balanced among three reception rooms and three bedrooms.

Entrance is through the porch, then into the reception hall, on to the large dining/living room, wood panelled study/second living room, and tv room.

The open-plan Shaker-style kitchen has German-designed units and fully integrated appliances. Adjacent is the plumbed and shelved utility with door to the front garden.

One bedroom is located on the ground floor; while the two remaining bedrooms and bathroom are on the first floor.
