To the right of the front door is a large drawing room with exposed beams and an open fireplace with three double doors leading out to the garden. To the left of the entrance hall is the dining room with integral storage and a woodburner.

There is a good sized family kitchen which is spacious, light and airy with a large Aga, fitted units and access to the garden.
