Both rooms have a traditional fireplace with raised hearth and open grate, detailed ceiling cornices and picture rails. The snug/study has a bay window and a former fireplace which is now a shelving display area with further cupboards to the side and rear of the room. There is also access to a cloakroom.

Kitchen/Breakfast Room and Utility Room
The kitchen/breakfast room has a custom built range of Shaker style units with granite worksurfaces incorporating a butler sink and a two oven gas fired Aga. An exposed rustic tiled floor continues into the breakfast area which has picture rails and a custom built range of traditional style shelving. Both areas have glazed doors to the rear garden.

Each reading is based on the highest predicted speed of any major broadband network for services that deliver the download speeds. The following are the different readings that we may display:

    Basic: Up to 30 Mbit/s
    Super-fast: Between 30 Mbit/s and 300 Mbit/s
    Ultra-fast: Over 300 Mbit/s

    Mobile phone signal availability and predicted strength: obtained from Ofcom on February 1, 2022

    Mobile signal predictions are provided by the four UK mobile network operators: EE, O2, Three and Vodafone. Predictions can vary significantly from the coverage you may actually experience as a result of local factors (especially terrain). Ofcom has tested the actual coverage provided in various locations around the UK to help ensure that these predictions are reasonable. The values shown against a property can be broken down as follows:

    Clear: No bars, no signal predicted
    Red: One bar, reliable signal unlikely
    Amber: Two bars, may experience problems with connectivity
    Green: Three bars, likely to have good coverage and receive a data rate to support basic web services
    Enhanced: Full bars, likely to have good coverage indoors and to receive an enhanced data rate to support multimedia services
