The full accommodation comprises reception hallway with working fireplace and ample space for furniture, sitting room, and dining room both with exposed stone and beams, study which is located in the cellar and has been fully converted, kitchen/breakfast room boasting a lovely inglenook which houses a log burner, utility room, and WC.

The second staircase leads to the master bedroom which has an adjoining door to a dressing room, which in turn leads to the family bathroom. Outside there is a private south westerly facing courtyard garden which provides the ideal space for entertaining. EPC: Tbc
