Stepping inside, the grandeur of the era is immediately evident.

The property is now fully residential and benefits from a single council tax band, along with one set of gas, water, and electricity services.

There are 2 additional floors below the Ground floor, one of which is a self-contained annexe, accessible from either the internal entrance within the main house, or the external entrance, featuring two bedrooms, two bathrooms, a kitchen/diner, and a store room.
