The main bedroom is a large double being serviced by the adjoining bathroom comprising a panelled bath with shower fitment, wash basin and WC.

Bedroom two is a double with a built-in cupboard which houses the boiler controls, with the boiler itself being situated in the roof space. There is also a further separate shower room. The large landing provides access to the loft space which is mainly boarded with floor boards.

FLEXIBLE LIVING
Ruardean offers flexible living accommodation; the ground floor dining room could easily be used as a sitting room and the downstairs bedroom could be used as a second reception/family room, whilst the first floor drawing room could make a magnificent bedroom keeping all three reception rooms on the ground floor and all three bedrooms on the first floor.

OUTSIDE
Access to the rear garden is from the eating kitchen/family room which open out onto the paved terrace and steps which lead up to the remainder of the garden. This has been attractively laid out with a variety of shrubs and potted plants, and to the rear there is a further raised terrace where the garden room/home office is fully insulated, having power and light connected. This could be used for a range of activities such as entertaining or working from home. There is also gate access onto Madeira Walk which leads to the High Street.

The property also benefits from having a garage on Captains Row which is very close to the house and has lighting, electricity points and an electric door.

Planning permission has been granted to further enlarge the property in the roof if so required. The property also offers great potential for further enlargement of the ground floor by extending into the enclosed courtyard (STPP).
