Both rooms have handsome fireplaces and the main sitting room leads through to the conservatory. The kitchen / family room is located to the rear of the house and gives ample room for sofas and further eating space along with a breakfast bar. The kitchen itself has a generous range of matching units and high quality built-in appliances. The ground floor is completed by the rear lobby leading to the terrace and a cloakroom and utility room matching the kitchen.
