The layout includes two reception rooms, a kitchen that opens into a bright garden room, and a private top-floor bedroom offering flexible use as a principal suite or home office. A beautifully landscaped Japanese-style rear garden with three ponds creates a rare, peaceful outdoor retreat in an urban setting.
Practical extras include driveway off-street parking, mains gas central heating and fast broadband with excellent mobile signal — useful for commuters and home workers.
