    The property is beautifully presented and benefits from high quality fittings and oak joinery throughout. Great thought has been given to the situation of the house with large windows and doors providing an abundance of natural light.

    A solid oak front door opens to an entrance porch with vaulted ceiling leading to the spacious, light and airy reception hall with wood flooring and doors to the main reception rooms. The sitting room is well proportioned and triple aspect with exposed beams, a large open fireplace and doors opening to the side and rear gardens. Full height glazed panels and doors open from the hall to the dining/games room with large windows and door opening to the front garden.
