The home was thoughtfully reconfigured in 2018 to create a spacious and more practical layout. During this time, it also underwent a comprehensive programme of works including a full rewire, replumb, and replaster, ensuring a high standard throughout. A log burner was installed to provide a cosy focal point to the living space, while new patio doors were added to both the kitchen and one of the bedrooms, allowing for plenty of natural light and direct access to the garden.

Further improvements include a stylish new kitchen fitted in 2022, complete with a plinth heater, and a contemporary bathroom installed in 2023. The property also benefits from a new boiler and radiators (2023), new carpets throughout (2026), and redecoration carried out between 2025 and 2026, meaning it is ready to move straight into.
