A welcoming reception hall forms the central point of the house, featuring tiled flooring and a striking split staircase leading to a galleried landing.

The kitchen is fitted with bespoke cabinetry, a central island and integrated Miele appliances, and provides ample space for dining and informal gatherings.

A temperature-controlled cellar offers further practical storage. A utility room is situated off the kitchen, with space for appliances and additional storage.

Beyond this is a guest bedroom with an en suite shower room, suitable for visitors or multi-generational living. On the first floor, the galleried landing leads to four further double bedrooms.

Three of the bedrooms include built-in storage, while the principal bedroom is generously proportioned.
