Leading from the kitchen is the splendid vaulted sitting room—an impressive space for relaxation beneath exposed oak beams, with full-width sliding glass doors opening onto the garden terrace.

From here, a rear hall gives access to the garaging, a shower room, and stairs leading to Bedroom 5/ Study.
An inner hall off the main reception area leads to the east wing, which offers excellent annexe potential. Currently arranged as a large study and a versatile bedroom/sitting room with French doors to the garden, this area also includes a well-equipped kitchen and a luxurious en-suite shower room.

Upstairs, the spacious landing incorporates a library/sitting area with south-facing windows and fitted cabinetry. The landing serves four generous bedrooms, including the outstanding principal suite with vaulted ceiling, west-facing balcony, dressing room, and opulent en-suite bathroom featuring a whirlpool bath and separate shower. A further guest bedroom benefits from its own en-suite, while two additional bedrooms are served by the beautifully appointed family bathroom.
