On the opposite side of the reception hall, a formal dining room provides a setting to host family and friends with a door leading through to the kitchen/breakfast room. With its rustic brick floor, the kitchen has a Vintage blue Aga at its heart and Shaker-style cabinetry, marble and wood work surfaces and a Belfast sink. Ancillary space is provided by a utility, a cloakroom, a pantry and a boot room, which links to a pretty garden room where a door connects to the terrace extending the living environment to the outside. The first floor offers a luxurious principal bedroom with en suite dressing room/bedroom 6 with access to the stunning ornate balcony, and a second bedroom that also links to the large bathroom with roll top bath and shower.
