Double doors lead through to the main LIVING ROOM, which features a recessed wood-burning fire with marble hearth and timber mantel, double-glazed windows and French doors, along with extensive built-in fitted cupboards. A large STUDY enjoys a bay window overlooking the garden.

Further doors from the entrance hallway lead to an additional SITTING ROOM, with double-glazed windows to two elevations. The UTILITY ROOM is fitted with a timber worktop, inset porcelain sink, and space and plumbing for both a washing machine and tumble dryer.
