Ground Floor - Upon entering, you are welcomed into a bright and spacious entrance hall featuring original terracotta flooring, immediately setting the tone for the character found throughout the home. The main entrance hall is rich in charm, showcasing exposed beams and a multi-level layout, with doors leading to the ground floor accommodation including a convenient downstairs cloakroom with wash basin and WC. Off the entrance hall, the kitchen/breakfast room and utility room/pantry can be found. The stunning kitchen/breakfast room is fitted with bespoke, high specification shaker style units complemented by marble worktops and limestone flooring. A double Belfast-style sink overlooks the front aspect, while additional features include an electric fireplace, exposed brickwork, and a charming original bread oven. An original staircase, that is no longer in use, has been transformed into a stunning focal point with a glazed door, adding an elegant feature to the kitchen area. This creative conversion has been changed into practical shelving, perfect for displaying your favourite books, decorative ornaments or even wine. Integrated appliances include a dishwasher and a Smeg range cooker. A rear door provides direct access to the garden. The utility room/pantry is a spacious and light filled room with a beautiful stained-glass window. It has been thoughtfully designed with bespoke cabinetry built around an original butcher’s block, along with space and plumbing for an American-style fridge freezer, washing machine, tumble dryer and additional storage. To the front of the property, the dining room features the same original terracotta tiled flooring and offers an abundance of natural light from a large front window and French doors opening onto the rear garden. A striking exposed brick fireplace with a log burner creates a wonderful focal point. This room also provides access to the first floor and an understairs storage cupboard. The living room is equally inviting, benefiting from dual aspect windows and a log burner, creating a cosy yet spacious family space.

First Floor - The first floor comprises of four generously sized double bedrooms, all finished with carpeting and served by three bathrooms. The master suite is a spacious double with a bespoke fitted double wardrobe and a stylish en-suite featuring a walk-in rainfall shower, WC, vanity unit with inset wash hand basin, and heated towel rail. Bedroom two is another large double room with a feature fireplace and its own en-suite, complete with a walk-in shower, WC, and wash basin, overlooking the rear garden.
