From the double height reception hall doors open to the heart of this impressive home; a light and airy open plan kitchen/dining/family room of superb proportions with lovely high ceiling. To one end are the sitting and dining areas, perfect for formal and informal entertaining, with a wood burning stove and two sets of bi fold doors that open to the terrace. The kitchen area is equipped with an extensive range of cupboards and central island. Integrated appliances comprise a Rangemaster oven with induction hob, a microwave, a dishwasher and freestanding fridge/freezer. The adjacent utility room features a washer/dryer and further painted cupboards.

Two further reception rooms offer a great degree of flexibility, both having en suite shower rooms. They are currently configured as a sitting room with bespoke fitted bookcases and a study/home office/bedroom four. A separate WC completes the ground floor accommodation.

Three first floor bedrooms are served by two en suite shower rooms and a family bathroom, all fitted with modern white sanitary ware, enhanced with chrome fittings and under floor heating. There is a boarded loft with access from bedroom two.
