There are three good bedrooms on the first floor, together with a family bathroom. The master suite with bedroom and shower room is on the second floor.
The house, constructed of solid brickwork with cavity brickwork extension, rendered externally, under a tiled roof (the single-storey extension has a flat roof), benefits from uPVC double-glazed windows and gas fired central heating.
