To the first floor are four well-proportioned double bedrooms served by a shower room. All the bedrooms have proportions that will accommodate a double bed and three of the bedrooms feature fitted storage/wardrobe space.  While the property would benefit from some modernisation, it presents a fantastic opportunity for buyers to personalise and add their own stamp.
