The pillared and covered entrance sets the scene when entering for the first time with fine examples of Oak flooring and panelling continuing through to the drawing room which enjoys a commanding aspect over the gardens. There are three further distinct reception rooms perfect for entertaining and still retaining original detailing joinery and stone fireplaces. The kitchen/breakfast room is in keeping with gracious styling and in part, a contemporary theme. Enjoying a double aspect with double doors opening into the glorious gardens the principal kitchen area is extensively fitted with an abundance of units, honed granite surfaces, Aga and a selection of integrated appliances.
The four bedrooms on the first floor are all well proportioned size. The bathrooms utilise high end and luxurious sanitary ware. The principal suite is quite superb incorporating a recently created dressing room and a stunning bathroom.

The adjacent cottage is in excellent condition and has been recently refurbished just ideal for those working from home, older children or alternatively elderly relatives.

The mature and exceptionally secluded gardens are mainly laid to lawn with a selection of evergreens and shrubs interspersed with a selection of flower borders.
