Entering through the front door, you are greeted by a large and welcoming formal entrance hall, complete with an impressive staircase rising to the first floor. A door leads through to the kitchen, which spans the full width of the house. This substantial space offers the potential to create a truly striking kitchen/dining/family room. Double doors to the front provide fantastic views over the grounds, filling the room with natural light and offering a wonderful outlook.
