What the Opportunity entails:

The accommodation on offer is a good sized double bedroom with storage on the ground floor and shared use of the homes other facilities and garden. Please note the sharers bedroom is downstairs, using what would have been the dining room, there is a conservatory which has been added and this is used as the dining area. The sharers bedroom is a large room which will have a bed and mattress in it. There is a glass door and window from the Sharers room to the conservatory, there are curtains so there is privacy, there is another door onto the hallway.
