To the rear of the property is a sitting room with a log burner, which enjoys views out over the expansive lawned gardens, and a dining room with dual aspect, a gas fire and oak flooring.

The breakfast kitchen is situated within a partially glazed, modern extension with high ceiling, exposed brickwork, and fantastic, far-reaching views.
