The door opens into a 12sq metre hall, to the left of the hall is a spacious, 50 square metre lounge diner, with triple aspect windows looking over your garden. The room has a chimney with a log burner, beamed ceiling and tiled floor, as all the floors throughout the property. To the right of the lounge is the 12square metre kitchen, with fitted cupboards, and tilked splash backs, from a small balcony you can view the rear garden. Leading out from the hall is a corridor, to the stairs, leading both up and downstairs, toilet, bathroom and the 3 bedrooms at this level. One of the bedrooms has glazed french windows to the front terrace and would also make a lovely office. Upstairs is the master bedroom with en suite bathroom and walk in wardrobe space, from which there is storage going into the eaves, a great place for hiding suit cases and seldom used objects. The lower ground floor could also form a spacious independant annex, it currently consists of the 45 square metre party room, with a bar and doors to the rear garden, laundry room, again with doors to the lower terrace, the boiler room, games room for table tennis and a large double garage. The property is centrally heated and has double glazed windows throughout.
