On the other side of the hallway is the dining room with ample space to seat 8-10 guests, a fireplace, drinks cupboard and door leading through to the rear hall. The dining room also leads on to an open plan kitchen with central island.

The rear hall runs the length of the house, with at one end a boot room with own garden door, then a study area with inbuilt storage leading through to a small utility area and a separate modern downstairs bathroom at the other end.

Stairs lead from the rear hallway up to the first floor landing. The principal bedroom enjoys generous proportions and an abundance of built in cupboards. A Jack and Jill bathroom splits bedrooms one and three, with a further double bedroom being served by the family bathroom on the ground floor.
