The adjoining family area is particularly impressive, featuring a vaulted ceiling which gives the room a wonderful feeling of space and height.
Velux-style roof windows further enhance the room by introducing additional natural light, while bi-folding doors provide a seamless connection between the interior and the rear garden.
