Bathed in natural light, the space features two sets of French doors that effortlessly draw the outdoors in—one opening onto a terrace perfectly suited to al fresco dining, and the other to a glass-balustraded open area, allowing uninterrupted enjoyment of the surrounding landscape. A wood-burning stove adds both warmth and atmosphere, creating an inviting yet sophisticated setting.

A separate utility room and WC further enhance the practicality of this level. From every aspect, the property enjoys truly spectacular, far-reaching views.

Downstairs, the accommodation is elegantly arranged to offer two beautifully appointed bedrooms, both commanding breathtaking views across the surrounding hills. The principal suite is particularly impressive, featuring a generously proportioned en-suite bathroom and French doors that open directly onto the grounds, creating a seamless transition between indoor comfort and the natural landscape.

The second bedroom is equally well presented and is served by a stylish family bathroom. Both bedrooms benefit from excellent built-in storage, thoughtfully designed to maximise space while maintaining a clean, uncluttered aesthetic.
