The entrance hallway provides ample space for storing coats shoes and bags but also provides access to all downstairs rooms.

The downstairs cloakroom currently features a basin and wc but has ample space for a shower cubicle if someone wished to add one. Off to the right and accessed via beautiful solid wood partially glazed double doors is the through living room/dining room. The size and potential of this room is amazing. If you wanted to split it off into 2 rooms it's a definite possibility but I really love the dual aspect light that shines through the room and the space there is to house as much furniture as you'd like. There is an ornate fireplace with feature multi fuel fire, beautiful coving surrounding the ceiling and you genuinely walk in this room and feel at home. To the rear of this room is a conservatory perfect for a children's playroom or space to work from home, it offers lovely views over the rear garden and you can imagine yourself having a relaxing cup of tea in there soaking in the greenery surrounding. The kitchen diner can be accessed via the dining room or the entrance hallway and features an array of bespoke solid wood base and wall units with shaker style mahogany doors, complimentary worktops and tiling. The sellers have made me aware that the aga could be included subject to negotiation but its a great addition to any kitchen! There is ample space for a 6-8 seater family dining table in the dining area or even a sofa and coffee table to make it more of a family room. Completing the ground floor is a handy utility room which houses the boiler (fitted in the last 2/3 years) and has storage cupboards and plumbing and space for a washing machine and tumble dryer.
Upstairs you're greeted with a beautiful landing leading off to all first floor rooms.
