• Potential on the large landing to create another bathroom
• Kitchen has a washing machine, dishwasher, freezer, modern AEG double oven. Windows overlooking the rear gardens with stable door giving access
• The property can be accessed from Sulham Lane, which is the main access, and the land has a separate access if required, from Spur Lane
• The conservatory is heated, with French doors giving access to the rear garden
• Modern family bathroom, and modern shower room to the ground floor
• Stable block with two stables, and a feed store, with concrete apron in front. Separate building, also in good order, previously used as a hay store
