The front entrance leads directly into a long gallery - perfect for displaying artwork and relaxing in the summer months. Glazed floor to ceiling this light and airy room is also used as a dining room.

The modern kitchen overlooks the pretty gardens and the master bedroom suite has an ensuite bathroom.

The second floor has four further bedrooms (including an infant's nursery) and two bathrooms.
