Inside has 168.6m2 (1814 sq. ft.) of sun-lit rooms where great design and a high quality finish has created a beautiful home which balances sophisticated entertaining with restful, comfortable bedrooms for the family.

An inviting living room looks over the garden where guests can enjoy the view and warmth of an eco-friendly wood pellet burner, and the sun-lit kitchen dining room folds open to a big, sunny garden with a pizza oven for al fresco dining. Ideal for guests or inter-generational living, two stylish double bedrooms on the ground floor share a chic shower room (and a separate w.c.) whilst upstairs a glamorous bathroom has a designer finish. With two more restful double bedrooms on this level you’re spoilt for choice of a principal bedroom as both enjoy the garden and the night sky through Velux in the roofline.
