The sitting room is bright and spacious with dual-aspect windows and bi-fold doors out to the garden. The windows have an electric retractable awning to shield from direct sunlight. It is carpeted and features a wood-burning stove. The open hallway has ample space for a dining area, with wooden floors and glass doors to a garden terrace. A study is also accessed from the dining hall with dual-aspect windows. A large cloakroom has hanging space for coats and shoes, and there is a generous open storage area with lighting beneath the oak staircase.
A separate family room has large windows to the front and leads through to the kitchen/dining room. The spacious kitchen features cream gloss fitted wall and base units, tiled floors, a peninsula breakfast bar with an attractive cream composite worktop, and a gas hob inset with an extractor over. There is a range of appliances, including a dishwasher, microwave, two ovens, a steamer oven and a useful desk area, and an integrated larder with a freestanding fridge and freezer. A dresser in the dining area has a wooden worktop, attractive shelving, and glass doors. There is space for a large dining table. A separate glass door leads out to the garden.
