Despite the expanse of glass, the house feels warm and cosy with wood burning stoves in many of the reception rooms. The interiors are appointed to a high standard feature a wealth of desirable modern conveniences including handmade kitchen units with granite work surfaces, bifold doors, air conditioning and underfloor heating. The property also benefits from use of the communal gardens and parking.
