Sliding patio doors open directly onto the rear deck, seamlessly connecting the inside and outside spaces whilst making the most of the wonderful elevated views across Windmill Hill.

The first floor offers three double bedrooms, including a principal bedroom with fitted wardrobes, all served by a recently refitted contemporary family bathroom finished to a high standard with a modern white suite and stylish tiling.

Accessed via a stair ladder, the converted loft room provides excellent additional storage and flexible space, currently ideal as a hobbies room, occasional guest room, children's playroom or home office. Subject to the necessary alterations and approvals, there is excellent potential to install a permanent staircase, allowing the space to be fully utilised as an additional room.

Outside, the property is approached via an attractive front garden, with a private driveway providing off-road parking for one vehicle.
