The 3,783 sq. ft. of accommodation is set over three floors with contemporary style features combined with period features including moulded ceiling cornices and roses throughout. The entrance hall has a high ceiling, a staircase with individual balustrades and exposed wood effect Karndean flooring which continues into the open plan kitchen/breakfast/dining room which has a utility room leading off. There is also a cloakroom and a tanked storage cellar with power. The principal bedroom has a walk-in dressing area and a refitted en suite shower room. There are two further bedrooms, a family bathroom and a first floor study which could be used as a single bedroom. The three remaining bedrooms are on the second floor, with an en suite and a bathroom.
