The current owners have utilised the room as a children's playroom, however given it's proportions and light airy feel it could be used for a multitude of uses such as a games room or even a home gym. The room features bi-fold doors onto the garden with additional natural light coming from the roof lantern and two windows back into the house which also aid in the free flowing feel of the ground floor.
