The two large reception rooms offer impressive high ceilings, ornate fireplaces which have been meticulously restored, beautiful coving and skirting boards. The large kitchen/ breakfast room accommodates an Aga and well designed, generous storage and worktop space. This leads through to the utility room which in turn leads to the garden. A unique feature of this house is the fully floored and lit cellar. Accessed by a staircase and doorway from the dining room, the cellar could accommodate many uses. A striking feature of this house is the large family room to the rear of the property. With beautiful dual aspect views over the rear garden, it is wonderful for entertaining. To the first floor lies five generously proportioned double bedrooms, with one offering an ensuite. The bespoke family bathroom has been tiled and finished with cherry wood, making this an impressive \"one-off\" design. To the second floor lies the grand, light and spacious master bedroom and en suite, an ideal escape from the hustle and bustle of family life. With an abundance of privacy, it's easy to forget how centrally this house is located. Mature trees surround the large garden, with a coach house at the rear.
