The principal rooms lead from the welcoming hall.
Of particular note is the drawing room with views towards the river and French Doors leading out to the gardens.
The kitchen and dining room are perfect for family life and the true heart of the house.
There are views of the garden from both the kitchen and dining room, with doors leading outside. There is also a family room at the front of the house and an en suite bedroom with shower room
There is a separate studio apartment which would be ideal for a housekeeper or guests, with its own kitchenette and en suite bathroom.
This useful space is accessed separately and was a former garage.
