The living space to the ground floor flows seamlessly from the spacious central hallway with a feature double height barn window through to the large sitting room. There is also a dining room, a valuable home office and the dining kitchen. Utility room, a boot room and downstairs shower room, together with the two large side rooms yet to be fully developed. Although most of the work has been painstakingly completed on this fine property, and to a very high standard throughout, there is still an area where a new owner can easily put their own personal stamp on this home. There are as mentioned above, two large adjoining rooms located to the ground floor, simply separated by a stud wall, which had the owners not been moving had planned to turn this combined area into a highly impressive 30' x 20' living and dining kitchen that would become the showpiece of the home. A lot of the first fix has already been put in place for this and the owners are happy to share the plans and visuals they had prepared for this area.

The first floor incorporates four spacious double bedrooms with each one having its very own en-suite areas with just the en-suite to finish in the principle bedroom and you will have a truly outstanding character and energy efficient home to enjoy for many a year.
