The second reception room, located toward the centre of the home, includes a log burner and provides access to a useful understairs cloakroom.
Situated at the rear of the property, the kitchen benefits from underfloor heating and opens directly onto the garden via French doors, seamlessly blending indoor and outdoor living.

The first-floor landing accommodates a cleverly designed laundry area, complete with space for white goods and fitted cabinetry. All three double bedrooms are generously proportioned and enjoy lofty ceilings and sash windows, maintaining the period charm while offering comfortable living. A well-appointed family bathroom serves all bedrooms on this level.
