The entrance hall is bright and sets the tone for how well presented the property is. There is access from here to the downstairs cloakroom, a large storage cupboard and into the spacious living room which is beautifully lit from the triple aspect and double French doors that open out to the grounds.

On the other side of the entrance hall the open plan kitchen/dining room runs the entire length of the property. This is a fantastic space for entertaining and spending time with family and friends. There is an original beam which gives the sense of divide in this room, separating the kitchen from the dining area. Wonderfully fitted with a luxurious finish, this room has everything that you would expect from a kitchen of this calibre. There are plenty of base and wall mounted units for storage, a Rangemaster with five gas burners, two ovens and two ceramic hotplates, a wine cooler and an integrated dishwasher. There is also a perfect spot for a freestanding American fridge freezer. Adjacent to the kitchen is a separate utility room where the theme of the kitchen continues. More stylish units and a sink, convenient for laundry. There is also an integrated washing machine and a door leading out to the garden.

Upstairs is just as immaculately finished as downstairs. The main double bedroom has a light feel to it with dual aspect windows that let in plenty of natural light. There is a built in storage cupboard and an en-suite shower room. The second double bedroom has an ornate fireplace and two windows that overlook the stunning grounds. There is a further double bedroom and also a twin room, perfect for when the family come to stay. The family bathroom has a traditional yet modern feel to it with complimentary contrasting colours and a freestanding roll top bath - there is also a separate shower cubicle.
