The ground floor entrance hall contains the meter cupboard and a separate toilet. From the hall, one enters the bright living room which features large window frames at both the front and rear of the property, ensuring pleasant natural light throughout the day. The window frames are constructed from plastic and are fitted with HR double glazing, contributing to the energy efficiency of the home.

The open kitchen is situated at the rear of the ground floor and features a sliding glass door that opens directly to the back garden. Next to the back door of the kitchen, there is an additional storage cupboard that provides convenient extra storage space.
