A bespoke, integrated wine rack doubles as a room divider which separates the dining area from the day room. The day room provides an informal seating area which incorporates shelving / media wall and bi fold doors to the rear terrace. Flowing on from the day room is a glazed link which is adorned with a singular piece of oak to the ceiling and full floor to ceiling windows to either side. The glazed link opens to the exceptional vaulted kitchen. With a glazed gable at either end and a 4.2 metre centralised island, the kitchen is the epitome of modern luxury.
