The kitchen, well-sized and adaptable, allows for the possibility of creating an open-plan dining space directly connected to outdoor areas. The practical family bathroom features a classic three-piece suite that provides comfort for busy households. A lean-to conservatory extends from the side of the home, currently utilized as a utility space, it opens up to the sizeable rear garden—a blank canvas perfect for those looking to cultivate their own oasis or entertain outdoors.
