Fitted wall and base units continue around the room and further integrated appliances include a separate fridge and freezer, a 2-oven 'Stoves' range cooker with induction hob and stainless steel extractor hood, and an integrated microwave. In the dining area, further cupboards and quartz worktops make a Welsh-dresser style unit, with a wine fridge. There is space for a 12-seater rectangular dining table, beside the French doors to the garden.
To the front of the house, a wooden door leads into the study / snug, which is carpeted, with a window to the front, recessed LED lighting, and space for a desk and a sofa.
The utility room is accessed from the central reception room, with wood laminate flooring, fitted wall and base units, space for a washing machine and a tumble dryer, a stainless steel sink set into quartz composite worktops, and a window to the front of the property.

Outside
The South East-facing rear garden is a most welcoming space which has been lovingly laid out by the current owner who is a professional landscape gardener. A large tiled patio from the dining room creates a generous al fresco dining area, next to the attractive rendered walls of the extension. There is a useful warm and cold external tap. Mature flower beds, shrubs, trees and borders have been well-stocked. The garden is fringed by beech hedging and close-board fencing. A large wooden shed provides generous storage.
