The kitchen / family room has a fantastically clinical but ultra modern and clean work space with black surfaces and white cupboard facings. There is a peninsula breakfast bar with curved corners at the end on one side to create a division with the dining area while, at the front, the separate living room with its 1930s bay window has been retained.

The double height front bay also serves the master bedroom, where wardrobes have been fitted either side of the chimney breast. At the rear of the house are the second and third bedrooms while the family bathroom has been refitted with a shaped bath.

At the front, the house has a paved hardstanding with room for several cars and a garage with twin doors where a utility area has been installed at the rear. A raised decked terrace with glazed roof, balustrades, and central steps leads to the rear garden. The garden features a patio area and matching flagstone path with a lawn to one area and mature shrubs, evergreens, and bushes among slate chippings and Mediterranean style planters to the other. At the end of the garden is a wooden built shed with trellis fencing and a raised patio area with log store.
