THE GRAND TOUR
Main House - Entering via the main door at the front there is small lobby area which leads to the kitchen/dining room in one direction and the sitting room in the other. The kitchen/dining room is a traditional country style space with a range of wall and base level storage with wooden worktops over. There is an inset double range oven and hob as well as space for various white goods and the space for the table. The kitchen leads out to the rear lobby and the garden beyond providing a space for coats and shoes. The main sitting room is a wonderful space with a bright dual aspect and tiled flooring. There is also a stunning inglenook fireplace housing a woodburner and double doors out to the garden. Stairs lead to the first floor landing whilst a corridor leads to the flexible ground floor bedroom/annexe space. A door also leads to the ground floor bathroom which is a very attractive space split into two distinct sections with Jack and Jill doors meaning it could easily be separated into two separate rooms if required. There is a traditional tiled floor, roll top bath, hand wash basin, w/c and large double walk in rainfall shower. The rear hallway leads from the bathroom and offers a staircase to the bedroom above as well as a door out to the garden. The ground floor bedroom is a sizeable room and could of course be used as a bright reception room if required but lends itself perfectly to secondary/annexe accommodation with the bedroom above.

Using the main staircase off the sitting room you will find the first floor landing leading to three bedrooms and a w/c.
