Upstairs there are three more double bedrooms, the master with en-suite, and a family bathroom. The house is finished to an immaculate standard inside and out and all three bedrooms benefit from views over the garden and down towards the stream.

The house is approached by and in-and-out gravel driveway which leads first to a double garage, which has planning approval to be converted into a annex and then on to another single garage. The garden wraps around the entire house and measures at just over three quarters of an acre surrounded by mature trees making this the perfect secluded spot. There are several seating areas including one that bridges over the stream which runs through the garden to the lower south side. The garden’s open spaces enjoy the sun throughout the day and the large lawned area to the rear is the perfect place for expansion.

The property is close to the open spaces of Alexandra park, which can even be accessed by Old Roar Gill, with its array of recreational facilities and café.
