Double doors open into a generous Reception Hall with oak flooring and an oak staircase with glass balustrade rising to the upper floors. A Cloakroom with wc and plumbing in place for a shower lies off the hall, while glazed double doors lead to the Sitting/Dining Room at the front and the Family Room/Kitchen to the rear.

Bi-fold doors open directly onto the terrace and landscaped garden, creating a seamless connection between indoors and out.
