The high-spec Symphony kitchen is finished in a sleek high-gloss style with Neff appliances, a large Corian topped island, and integrated appliances include two small drinks fridges, Neff ovens and induction hob, extractor and dishwasher. The focus of this part of the room is an impressive corner window overlooking the driveway towards the woodland.
Leading off the kitchen with separate outside access, is a large boot room/utility with fitted cupboards and space for appliances, a large cupboard houses the pressurized water cylinders and would be perfect for drying and airing clothes. Also on this side of the house there is a further generous double bedroom/ study with an adjacent WC/shower room.
