At the far end of the reception room in a central position is a wood burner on a raised slate hearth with a door on the left to the conservatory and a further door on the right opening in to a lobby area which gives access to a WC, a bedroom and the swimming pool. The conservatory overlooks the gardens and has access through French doors out on to the patio and also has a door in to the downstairs bedroom. The bedroom has a window overlooking the side garden, has two exposed granite walls and a further door in to the lobby.

      Off the entrance hall to the left is a WC and the kitchen.

One to the original Farmhouse Minton tiled entrance hall, staircase, second reception room, another to a bedroom and the third to a wet room.

The original entrance hall has a door opening in to the garden and a further door in to the second reception room which has stripped pine flooring, original cornicing and ceiling rose, Victorian fireplace with recessed wood burner and a window with seat overlooking the front gardens.
