The main bathroom has tiles underneath the carpet, and offers a good spacious retreat. There is a bath with shower over, Vanity unit with inset hand wash basin, and W.C tucked behind a decorative arch.
Bedroom one looks out to the front of the property, and comes in at over 19 foot! Offering a large space for the biggest bed you can find, along with plenty of space for your furnishings.

What the vendor says:
When we moved here with our family over 20 years ago, we couldn't believe our luck. We have been very happy ever since. We have had the best parties here, and there is always room for extra guests. I remember my Son being able to enjoy the sun all day, in the mornings he sat on the terrace and in the afternoons he was amongst the fruit trees.
