      The mid-century house has handsome rendered elevations with traditional weatherboarding in the gables, under a clay tile roof.

      On the first floor are four well proportioned bedrooms, a family bathroom with a separate shower, and a lavatory. The principal bedroom is an especially generous room with far reaching views over the garden and towards Fynn Valley.

      Roots sits within grounds of about 0.6 of an acre, with beautiful south-facing gardens, principally lawned with herbaceous and shrub borders, and an array of mature trees.

      Immediately to the south of the house is a superb terrace, ideal for al fresco dining and entertaining, with steps down to the lawn. Occupying an elevated position to the rear of the house is a further lawn, with field views.
