dressing area is positioned to one side of the bedroom, with the en-suite shower room to the other. The en-suite
is fitted with a shower, WC and wash hand basin, finished with half-height tiling and full tiling to wet areas for a

Flood Risk
Environment Agency open data, checked around the advertised map pin for the listed acreage. Long-term risk counts flood defences; the planning map's flood zones do not. The map pin for this listing marks the postcode area rather than the exact location, so these readings describe the surrounding area. Provided by LandSale, not the listing agent, and not part of the agent's particulars. Risk varies across a holding, so verify before committing.
