A wooden staircase rises from the kitchen/breakfast room to a generous first floor landing with useful storage and space for additional furniture. It gives access to three well proportioned, part-vaulted double bedrooms, the principal with built-in storage, together with a wooden-floored family bathroom with a freestanding rolltop bath and separate shower enclosure.
