A truly wonderful room with exposed flint and brick walls to the rear, original brick fireplace with wood burning stove, hardwood flooring, spotlighting and windows to the side aspect. The room opens into the conservatory with breath taking countryside views.

Natural light is offered through arched windows to the side aspect with a feature window to the front aspect and two sky lanterns. French doors to the rear open out to the garden and a set of stairs also lead to the first floor.
