Stairs rise from the reception hall to a vaulted first floor landing, giving access to a generously-proportioned vaulted dual aspect principal bedroom with an interconnecting dressing room with en suite bathroom with freestanding rolltop bath and separate shower. Three further part-vaulted double bedrooms and a modern part wood-lined family bathroom with bath and separate shower cubicle, complete the facilities.
