Sitting Room

Positioned at the front of the property, the sitting room is a welcoming and cosy reception space, filled with natural light from the front aspect window. The room comfortably accommodates a range of living furniture and offers a calm, neutral backdrop following recent redecoration.

A notable feature is the original fireplace, which is currently blocked but offers excellent potential for reinstatement, making it ideal for a log burner or feature fireplace, subject to the relevant works. This provides a wonderful opportunity to add character and a focal point to the room.

Lobby

From the sitting room, an inner lobby provides access to the staircase rising to the first floor, as well as leading through to the kitchen/dining room. This separation works well, giving the sitting room a cosy, defined feel

The kitchen/dining room is a spacious and practical room with excellent versatility. The layout comfortably allows for a dining table, making it ideal for everyday living or entertaining.

The kitchen offers generous worktop space, fitted units, and room for freestanding appliances - all white goods are included. A useful built-in pantry provides valuable additional storage and is a notable feature rarely found in properties of this size.
