The sitting room has an original marble fireplace with a raised hearth housing a log burning stove and a shuttered bay window overlooking the front garden. The dining room has a feature marble fireplace, custom-built floor-to-ceiling bookshelves, and doors to the kitchen/breakfast room and garden room.

Kitchen/Breakfast Room and Garden Room
The hall, dining room and garden room access the kitchen/breakfast room, providing an easy flow around the ground floor. It is fitted in a range of custom-built, hand-painted cabinets with brass furnishings including a central island/breakfast bar, all with quartz work surfaces. There is space for a Range style oven, with extractor over, an integrated dishwasher, fridge and washing machine. A slate tiled floor continues through to the garden room which takes full advantage of the views of the garden, with a bi-fold door to a raised outdoor entertaining area.

It has been redesigned and landscaped, and includes an elevated seating area with steps leading to the landscaped garden with shaped lawned areas, mature plants, shrubs, and trees. External power is connected to this area. At the end of the garden is a custom-built outdoor entertaining area with raised planters set either side, power connected and outdoor lighting.
