The room comfortably accommodates a table and chairs, ensuring a real family/sociable feel. The look is finished with a beamed ceiling and high-quality Oak flooring. Moving towards the rear of the home is the kitchen/breakfast room which has been hand crafted with a comprehensive range of light-coloured floor and wall mounted units with granite work surfaces over. A splash of colour has been added from a central island unit with high quality Quartz work tops overlaid, which provides useful additional seating capacity. Several integrated appliances have been cleverly woven into the design including an Aga, dishwasher, microwave, and water softener, whilst windows to the front and side elevations ensure the room is flooded with an abundance of natural daylight. Completing this level is a separate utility room which has been fitted with more cupboard space with granite work tops over and space for a free-standing washing machine and tumble dryer. A large bespoke Oak wine rack has been added and a window and door opens onto the garden.

A staircase back in the entrance hall leads down to the original cellar/basement which has undergone significant improvement to create a superb, functioning home office set up. It has had a tiled floor laid, in addition to a beautiful, beamed ceiling which frames the room and French doors which open onto a spiral staircase leading up to the garden terrace.

Moving to the first floor, the landing here gives way to all the accommodation on this level, the master bedroom of which nestles to the side elevation and provides an attractive dual aspect orientation with an extensive range of built in wardrobes and the convenience of its own en-suite. This has been refitted with a stylish three-piece suite comprising of a double shower enclosure, cistern concealed wc and wash hand basin set into a vanity unit. The look is finished with sleek white splashbacks and heated towel rail.
