The heart of the home is the brand-new kitchen, complete with a central island, ample storage, and an oil-fired AGA, as well as access to the pantry, kitchen/utility and boot room. A cloakroom off the entrance hallway is ideal for guests and also provides further storage for coats and boots.
A grand staircase leads up to the first floor landing, where each of the five bedrooms is thoughtfully designed to offer space and privacy. The luxurious feel continues with two beautifully finished en-suites and a family bathroom. The top floor boasts a study to allow for remote working.
