A characterful dining room, easily accessed from the hall, enjoys a further open fireplace and large windows overlooking the courtyard.

The heart of the house is the superb kitchen, which is beautifully appointed and centred around a striking blue Aga. The kitchen is complemented by a pantry and a fully fitted second preparation kitchen, offering excellent functionality for modern living and entertaining.
