The kitchen has an adjoining breakfast room with access to the indoor swimming pool which is in need of refurbishment. To complete the ground floor there is a utility room, two cloakrooms, boiler room, store room and an inner courtyard where there is access to the annexe with a kitchen, sitting/bedroom and bathroom.

The house is set behind electric gates which lead onto a gravelled driveway providing generous parking for several vehicles.

There is a large expanse of well maintained lawn, an array of rhododenron bushes, mature trees and herbaceous borders. A stream runs through the garden with a small garden bridge and a feature pond.
Situated away from the main house is the detached cottage which has been completely refurbished comprising a sitting room, fully integrated kitchen, cloakroom, three bedrooms, bathroom, separate WC and a useful store room.
