Five good-sized bedrooms ensure there's plenty of accommodation, while three bathrooms, a separate laundry and ample storage make the home as functional as it is warm and inviting. The layout of the home offers the ability to have a separate entrance wing which could be used as a BnB or office space with en-suite.

Outside, the sheltered courtyard is complemented by established gardens, the brick construction built in 1989, adds peace of mind and double internal access garaging completes the appeal.
