The accommodation includes spacious entrance hall kitchen/diner along with access to the basement cellar. There are also three spacious and light filled reception rooms. Stairs lead to the first floor with four bedrooms and five piece family bathroom suite.
The attached annex comprises a reception room with stylish mezzanine utility room shower room connecting hallway and double bedroom plus a large storage room which is accessed externally.
The property is set on a substantial plot with parking area and beautiful gardens to the front side and rear along with patio areas ideal for alfresco dining.
