The sofa, 2 armchairs and sideboard in the lounge are also available by separate negotiation. The spacious and welcoming entrance to the home benefits from a walk-in shelved storage cupboard which houses the water cylinder, boiler, electricity meter, and fusebox.  The instantly appealing, open-plan lounge/diner can comfortably accommodate a range of furniture, and offers direct access to the well equipped, kitchen which is fitted with an array of floor and wall units in a light wood finish complemented by contrasting granite effect work surfaces and splashback tiling.  The good sized double bedroom benefits from a mirror-fronted wardrobe, and has ample floor space to accommodate free standing furniture.  Completing the accommodation is the upgraded, wheelchair accessible, shower room which benefits from full wet-wall panelling and is fitted with white coloured sanitary ware, and walk-in shower with non-slip flooring.
