The generous living space also contributes to the feelgood mood of the property, with two formal reception rooms, an informal family room and a sun room in which to unwind. These rooms interconnect and open, through the sun room, to an inviting, tiered deck with large lawn beyond.

Additional accommodation is also located right at the top of the house in the converted attic which has a well appointed, separate shower room.

The front elevation includes two bay windows, and the property opens up from the wide entrance porch and into the reception hall with solid oak floors.

Leading off are the study, two interconnecting reception rooms, sun room, kitchen/dining room, utility/garage, family room and guest cloakroom.

Upstairs are four bedrooms - one with en-suite, and one with cast-iron fireplace. The main bathroom includes a free standing bath and separate shower, and there is also a second toilet with wash-hand basin. The attic room has Velux windows, eaves storage and fully-tiled en-suite.
