The heart of the home is the bright kitchen with walk-in pantry and larder, linked to a utility room for added practicality.

The principal suite enjoys sweeping southerly views across the grounds, with a walk-in dressing room and a luxurious ensuite bathroom featuring his and hers basins, a Jacuzzi bath, and a walk-in shower. This suite also includes a small nursery or study. Three further double bedrooms and a stylish family shower room complete this floor, with a secondary staircase leading back to the kitchen.
