There's also a convenient lift and staircase providing access to the first floor, where you’ll find double bedrooms with charming vaulted ceilings and original features such as fireplaces in some rooms. The conservatory flows seamlessly from the living room and has direct access to the utility room as well as both the front and rear gardens, enhancing connectivity with nature. A dining room boasting wood flooring and brick detailing connects through to a kitchen equipped with shaker-style units, allowing potential buyers to modernize or redesign according to their taste. A noteworthy feature is the potential annexe that includes kitchenette facilities, a shower room, and additional rooms accessible through separate entrances.
