Property Details
DESCRIPTION
An individual detached property, formerly a period chalk outbuilding, cleverly remodelled and converted in about 1990. The spacious accommodation includes a reception hall, a spacious sitting room with separate study area and a good size kitchen/dining room. To the first floor there are two double bedrooms and a spacious family bathroom with white suite. The property benefits from Economy 7 and double glazed windows. Outside there is a detached single garage, off road parking and an interesting raised decking area which enjoys southerly views towards farmland opposite.
AGENT'S NOTE
The property used to have three first floor bedrooms, with the existing master bedroom being divided into two bedrooms. This arrangement could easily be reinstated at relatively low cost (as shown on plan).
