To the rear of the property is the main living space which offers a relaxing seating area, stone flooring, historic 300 year + fireplace with large wood-burning stove and access to the rear garden via a walk-in bay with French doors and a second, raised lounge area with electric blinds and amazing uninterrupted rural views - The impressive kitchen/diner, which is generous in size, offers a stylish ‘Mowlem and Co’ hand-painted fitted kitchen with integrated 'Miele', 'Aga' and Bosch appliances, limited-edition four-oven gas ‘Aga’, granite work surfaces, underfloor heating, tiled flooring and inglenook fireplace with wood burning stove.
