A door leads through to the modern country kitchen with fitted Shaker style units, integrated appliances, underfloor heating, understairs pantry cupboard and utility area with plumbing for washing machine. Off the kitchen there is a dining room, which also has underfloor heating, and French doors opening out to the side terrace creating the perfect space for al fresco dining and entertaining.
