The house has a number of impressive reception rooms including an elegant drawing room with a marble chimney piece, a bay window and French doors opening onto the garden. On
the opposite side of the hall is a smaller room used as a library/study with fitted bookshelves and cupboards beneath.

A hallway leads to a dining room with a parquet floor, oak panelling and two bay windows. A door from the hallway accesses the wine cellar.

The leisure suite comprises a swimming pool framed by stone paved flooring with a seating area and a gallery above. Beside the entrance from the hallway is a shower room and a jacuzzi.

The impressive family kitchen has Clive Christian fitted units and an island to one end with a range of integrated appliances and a Viking stove. In the centre is a dining area and at the far end a sitting area with a log burner. Off the kitchen is a back hall, a pantry and WC and a conservatory linking to a laundry room.
