The current accommodation is light and airy, with entry through a galley-style kitchen practical and clean but now ready for updating, this leads into a charming timber breakfast room with large windows overlooking the gardens. A hallway connects to the bathroom along with a deep storage cupboard that houses the gas boiler. The spacious sitting/dining room features a central fireplace and a flight of stairs that go up to a loft room with further generous attic space, offering exciting scope for conversion. On the ground floor, you’ll find a large principal bedroom with dressing room and two additional bedrooms, one with access to a conservatory.
