Entrance Hallway

Stylish patterned tiling adds character to the scheme, whilst practical tiled flooring completes the contemporary yet homely aesthetic. The kitchen is exceptionally well equipped, with integrated appliances including a dishwasher, washer/dryer, fridge, electric oven and induction hob with extractor canopy over. A pot sink with mixer tap completes the practical arrangement, whilst a door provides convenient access to the bar/cellar.

Bar/Cellar

Beautifully styled throughout, the room features fitted wine storage, a breakfast bar seating area and atmospheric feature lighting, providing the perfect setting for drinks with friends, relaxed evenings and entertaining at home. Benefiting from natural light, the space is wonderfully versatile and could easily be reimagined as a cosy snug, cinema or games room, hobby space or even a dedicated home office, depending on the needs of its next owners.
