Beyond the kitchen is a tiled breakfast room with a feature fireplace.

The house has a very large loft which is accessible, using an automated loft hatch, from the inner landing.

The 2000sq.ft pool house has a 34' in ground, lined, heated swimming pool.

The lawned gardens wrap around the property and feature camellias, hydrangeas, a magnolia tree.
