Entered on the raised ground floor, the house opens into an impressive formal reception/dining room – a refined entertaining space featuring bespoke built-in shelving and decorative panelling. Cleverly designed joinery conceals a hidden door leading to a well-appointed utility room, adding both practicality and charm. A few steps down on the half landing reveals a striking open-plan kitchen that has been thoughtfully extended to create a superb everyday living space. The kitchen flows seamlessly into an informal dining area to the rear, where large Crittall-style doors open directly onto the private south-facing garden, allowing natural light to flood the space and creating a perfect setting for indoor-outdoor living. The lower ground floor provides a generous 20’ x 15’ family or reception room, ideal as a media room, playroom or relaxed living area, complete with extensive built-in storage.

The first floor comprises two well-proportioned double bedrooms, one of which benefits from air conditioning, along with a stylish family bathroom. The top floor is dedicated to the principal suite, featuring built-in wardrobes and a contemporary en-suite shower room.
