The first floor provides a landing linking two bedrooms and the bathroom. The bathroom is notable for not only accommodating a three piece suite but also a separate quadrant shower enclosure. A mains gas boiler supplies domestic hot water and radiators and windows were replaced with traditional styled timber casements with sealed unit glazing.
