Shaker style units with solid oak worksurfaces, a Belfast sink, integrated dishwasher, space for an American fridge freezer and a Range cooker with bespoke canopy create a beautifully cohesive and functional kitchen. Dual aspect windows to the front and rear ensure the space is bathed in natural light, while exposed beams and a striking dual sided log burning stove provide warmth and charm. The stove forms a seamless link into the formal dining room - a spectacular and adaptable space. Vaulted ceilings, exposed beams, and an abundance of light from three sets of patio doors and a rear facing window create a perfect blend of indoor and outdoor living, ideal for both entertaining and everyday family life.

Bespoke fitted corner units offer stylish storage, while the room also provides access to the stairs, leading to the first floor, and to the charming front porch. The front porch - once the original entrance to the home, dating back to the early 1800s - stands as a proud reminder of the property’s heritage.

FIRST FLOOR
As you ascend to the first floor, you’re immediately greeted by a breathtaking space that sets the tone for the rest of the home. The exposed pitched ceilings with original feature beams lend a sense of grandeur and history, while a striking, original stained glass window to the front aspect adds a splash of colour and timeless charm. A long, front-to-back landing with standout barn style stained doors leads you effortlessly to each room, emphasizing the property’s character and individuality. The first floor boasts four rooms - three spacious double bedrooms and a versatile fourth room currently used as a home office/dressing room, thoughtfully fitted with bespoke Shaker style wardrobes. Two of the rooms enjoy views to the front, while the other two face the rear. The principal suite is a true highlight. Located at the front, it offers a beautifully curated retreat featuring dual front facing windows with a classic stone mullion divider and cill, exposed vaulted ceilings with original beams, and a panelled feature wall behind the bed. A private door leads to a stylish, modern three-piece shower room with a corner enclosure and mixer, cottage style combined toilet and basin vanity, vaulted ceilings, and a Velux window that bathes the room in natural light. Completing the first floor is a contemporary, cottage three piece bathroom. It includes a panelled bath with telescopic taps, a low-flush toilet, and a distinctive corner designed sink set on an oak surface with a stone bowl — all beautifully accented with antique brass taps and fittings. This floor is a seamless blend of heritage features and modern luxury — a true reflection of the home’s unique character.
