The principal bedroom enjoys a Juliette balcony with French doors overlooking the garden, along with its own en suite and dressing room, creating a light-filled and private retreat.
A further bedroom also benefits from an en suite and dressing room, while the remaining bedrooms are served by a well-appointed family bathroom, with additional storage enhancing practicality.
