Accommodation

Entry is to the side of the house, the door opening to a vestibule with doors to the kitchen and hall, and a storage heater, the wood laminate flooring in the lobby continuing throughout the whole of the ground floor (except bathroom). The good-sized, modern kitchen which has a window to the front of the house, has fitted units in a stylish grey colour set off by black speckled worktops and white tiled splash backs, the units providing plenty of cupboard and worktop space and including an integral double oven and hob with cooker hood over, plus plumbing for a washing machine and an inset sink. A built-in cupboard houses the electric central heating boiler/water tank.

Moving on into the hall, the bathroom is to the right, a glazed door opens to the living room to the left, whilst at the end is a bedroom or office and the stair to the first floor which has some storage space under.

The living room is generously proportioned with plenty of space for living and dining areas, and plenty of natural light thanks to the wide triple window which overlooks the front garden. A shelved recess provides space for books, display, etc., with fitted cupboard space below. The single bedroom at the end of the hall is currently being used as a dining room and has a built-in shelved cupboard, and a west-facing window looking out over the back garden. It provides an ideal office space if not used as a bedroom or dining room.

Finally the bathroom comprises a modern white suite, the bath having a shower with ‘rainfall’ shower head and separate hand held fitting over, the WC and wash hand basin being set in a fitted unit which conceals the cistern and provides handy storage space for toiletries etc. Ladder style heated towel rail and vinyl flooring.

The carpeted stair which is lit by a large window to the half-landing, leads up to two carpeted, double bedrooms on the first floor, both having east-facing dormer windows enjoying the view to the voe, a storage heater and a built-in eaves store cupboard.
