Doors from the drawing room lead through to two further reception rooms, a generous study and a gorgeous light filled garden room.

Completing the ground floor accommodation are two rooms currently arranged as a bedroom and kitchen/sitting room with a nearby shower room, which thanks to independent access, could easily be a self-contained annexe or a work from home space.

Each one is unique, but all have lovely wooden floors creating a real flow to the upstairs.
