An original victorian woodwork partition divides the living room and dining room. The dining room offers plenty of room to dine comfortably and has a door entrance into both the corridor and the ample office space. This adjoining space is currently used as an office but could be repurposed by new owner easily. The parlor-floor corridor also provides access to the bathroom and bedroom at the garden end of the property. The bedroom is large and bright and has two full south-facing windows.
