The ground floor opens via a charming entrance porch and hallway leading into two impressive reception rooms, both featuring elegant coving, picture rails, wooden flooring, and character fireplaces. The fitted kitchen breakfast room is accompanied by access to outbuildings and an outdoor WC, presenting scope to convert or extend subject to the necessary planning consents.
Across the upper floors, the property comprises five substantial double bedrooms, a dedicated study, and a family bathroom complemented by an additional separate shower room.
