The dual-aspect sitting room provides a more formal setting and features a striking fireplace with a wood-burning stove inset. The bedroom is currently arranged as an additional home office, highlighting the versatility of the rooms. Stairs from the living room lead to an airy landing on the first floor, from which the remaining five bedrooms and a bathroom are accessed. The particularly spacious master bedroom enjoys an exceptionally large sleeping area, builtin wardrobes, an en-suite bathroom, and a dressing room, whilst the remaining bedrooms are all supplemented by built-in storage.
