The family bathroom on this level provides ample space for both bath and shower arrangements. The top floor features a roomy loft space that can be transformed according to your needs. The expansive garden presents significant potential for landscaping or extension possibilities (subject to planning permissions). A garage at the bottom of the garden offers not just storage but also workshop potential alongside an extra carport.
