Unusually for a three-storey property, the accommodation has a lovely balance to it, with an enlarged kitchen to the rear of the ground floor which creates a wonderful L-shaped space (measuring 37' x 37') - perfect as family or entertaining space.

The second floor is given over to a magnificent bedroom suite which wraps around the central staircase. A large bedroom area narrows to a dressing room leading into a beautiful four-piece en-suite from which a door opens back into the main bedroom space. There are several eaves storage cupboards, two dormer windows each to the front and rear; this room would undoubtedly make an excellent games room or cinema room.
