Upon entering at hall level, a gracious entrance hall leads to a pair of stunning interconnecting reception rooms, each featuring wonderful bespoke gas fires with marble surrounds, tall sash windows and exquisitely restored ceiling cornicing and mouldings. These formal rooms offer wonderful natural light and symmetry, ideal for both entertaining and everyday living. A separate kitchen and dining area opens directly to the south-facing rear garden.

Upstairs on the first floor, the principal bedroom suite spans the full width of the house and now features a newly installed, luxuriously appointed ensuite bathroom.
