The beautifully appointed kitchen/breakfast/family room forms part of a modern extension and is the heart of the house, it is flooded with light with a bespoke kitchen by ‘Loveridge kitchens and bathrooms’ a spacious dining and sitting area and several sets of French doors access the various terraces and gardens beyond. The three further reception rooms on the ground floor are full of period features including thoughtfully restored mullion windows, open fires but with all modern amenities.
