In addition, there is a formal dual aspect sitting room with bespoke built media wall and a separate dining room, offering
flexibility for both informal family life and more traditional entertaining. Further ground floor features include a utility room, boot room and excellent storage throughout, while the galleried landing creates a sense of scale and light between the first and second floors.
