To the left sits an elegant living room with bay window, which is open plan through to the dining room (currently used as a study/multi-functional space) this room makes a dramatic design statement with its dark colours, bespoke joinery, high ceilings and original fireplace. Off here sits a study/playroom and utility with useful access to the exterior. The kitchen space is open plan to a breakfast room with double doors and large windows framing the garden beyond. A classically elegant and timeless bespoke kitchen with refined finishes and high end appliances. The breakfast area and living area enjoy a wonderful view of the garden connecting the outdoors with inside, a comfortable and functional area providing the perfect family space for dining, relaxing and informal entertaining.
The ground floor also offers a most practical second entrance (to side) to fully fitted laundry and what is now used as a playroom (this would also make an ideal home office space). Upstairs there are 3 bedrooms all well-proportioned with good storage space. In addition, there is a stylish designer bathroom.
