Just off the hallway to the right is a study overlooking the front of the property. This is a great spot for working away privately, whilst keeping an eye on the home’s comings and goings.

Off the hallway to the left is an adaptable room that overlooks the front of the property. It's currently used as a second living room but was designed to function as a ground floor bedroom if needed. A shower room next door makes it a practical option if single-level living is needed.
