Living Area
Grand Welcome & Inviting Living Spaces

Step inside and prepare to be charmed by this impressive period family home, where classic elegance seamlessly blends with modern comfort. Every inch of this residence offers extensive, well-proportioned accommodation, designed with the contemporary family in mind.

Beyond the welcoming entrance door with its elegant glazing (7.1m x 1.8m), a decorative staircase sweeps gracefully to the first floor, bathed in natural light from double-glazed windows on the landing.

Your journey into comfort begins in the expansive Drawing Room (6.7m x 4.1m). Imagine cozy evenings by the log-burning stove, nestled into the charming chimney breast with its stone hearth.
