Completing the room is a beautifully refitted luxury en-suite bathroom.

First Floor Landing
A characterful split-level staircase with engineered wooden flooring rises from the entrance hall to the first floor, where the landing divides to provide separate access to both the impressive living room and the kitchen/dining room. This thoughtfully designed split-level arrangement enhances the individuality and charm of the property whilst creating a practical separation between the principal living spaces.
