The accommodation comprises, a large welcoming reception hall with coat cupboard, oak flooring, a glazed rear elevation, which looks through to the garden room and garden beyond, and a cloakroom w.c. just off. A triple aspect sitting room has an impressive inglenook-style open fireplace and there are French doors from both the entrance hall and through to the garden room, which boast a vaulted glazed ceiling and French doors out to the garden. The kitchen / dining / family room measures over 24ft x 21ft and is fitted with attractive cabinetry , ample fitted working surfaces with an inset one and a half sink unit with drainer. Intregrated appliances include a Neff ceramic hob, double oven, extractor and dishwasher plus space for a fridge-freezer. In the family area of this space, there is a staircase rising to the first floor accommodation and a door that leads out to the generous utility / boot room where there is a door to the outside and where the usual white good are housed. The remainder of the ground floor consists of a large double bedroom and a study / playroom.

Upstairs, there are four bedrooms (Bedroom 3 and 4 inter-link) and a family bathroom. The vaulted ceilinged master bedroom also boasts a generous ensuite bathroom with both bath and shower.
