The kitchen is a bright and inviting room connecting the dining room which is another light-filled room providing doors to the garden and a mezzanine level incorporating a further bedroom and snug.
The annexe is situated to the north of the house and is provides an open plan sitting/dining room. There is a kitchen and ground floor bathroom with a further first floor bathroom and a double bedroom.
