The dual aspect entrance hall leads to the sitting room, which has a decorative open fireplace with tiled hearth and large bespoke hardwood windows which overlook the cottage style front garden. The family room with wood burning stove and large bespoke hardwood window leads into the generous kitchen/dining room which measures 30\‘3\" in length.

Double pine doors lead to the useful utility room which has a large butler sink, bespoke cabinetry, part-vaulted ceiling and stable door. An inner hallway, which leads to a shower room and bedroom five, completes the ground floor accommodation.
On the first floor the landing leads to two front double bedrooms, which both have period fireplaces, stripped wooden floor boards and bespoke hardwood windows. A long and spacious dressing/study area provides excellent space for additional storage and leads to a family bathroom and two further double bedrooms.
