Further to this is a useful utility room with a single aspect view to the front of the property, storage cupboards, a sink and space and plumbing for kitchen appliances.

The rear garden is primarily laid to lawn with mature trees, hedges and shrubs forming the border. There is an area of patio which is accessed via French doors in the dining room, making it an ideal space for alfresco dining and enjoying the westerly aspect.
