The dining room is currently laid out as a home office with ample storage. The room is bright and light with views to the front of the house.
The sitting room with wood burner is a peaceful room in which to unwind with a good book after a long country walk. Superbly proportioned it works wonderfully also when hosting larger gatherings.
Across the hall the kitchen/ breakfast room is clearly the heart of the house and a great room in which to entertain family and friends. Superbly renovated and extended it features an impressive copper and glass addition opening onto the terrace and garden. The room is bathed in natural light and is ideal for indoor/outdoor living in the summer. The kitchen is well equipped and provides plenty of worktop and storage space.
