The room offers ample space for multiple seating areas, making it ideal for both relaxed family living and more formal entertaining. The wide, open proportions of the room create excellent flow from the central hallway, and the overall effect is a sophisticated yet practical space that truly forms the heart of the home. From here, there is access to the adjacent office, which in turn leads to the garden through French doors.

The garden is bordered by mature planting, creating a natural screen that enhances the sense of seclusion.
