The ground floor accommodation consists of a boot / utility room, a WC, an open-plan kitchen / breakfast room which boasts an Aga, a dining room, living room with log burner and a sitting room. Both the living room and dining room feature parquet flooring. On the first floor there are four good sized double bedrooms, including two en suites; one with a master suite dressing room, and a family bathroom with roll top bath.
