Separate to this living space, an exposed stone wall, original cast iron stove and flagstones combine with modern units and appliances to present a wonderfully characterful kitchen/dining space.
The principal bedroom with en-suite is also awash with period features including further ornate cornicing, panelling and large, south facing windows, flooding the room with light. A well-designed dressing room offers generous storage as well as a mezzanine bed suitable for children, this room could also be adapted to be used as a study.
