Beyond this, the landscaped garden to the rear of the mews house has been designed for low maintenance, featuring elegant porcelain tiling and a hot tub, creating a private and tranquil outdoor escape.The two-bedroom mews house is a property in its own right, offering beautifully presented accommodation with a charming kitchen-diner, a cosy sitting room with log burner, two bedrooms (one with en-suite), and a family bathroom.
