The spacious sitting room, being double aspect, enjoys lots of natural light with a large picture window overlooking the rear garden and also includes an attractive fireplace. A particular feature of the home is the study, with its curious curved external wall and circular bay window and double doors opening into a conservatory which in turn leads out to the garden.

The room could be split to provide a further bedroom, if required.
