The dining room is a beautifully proportioned reception room, providing ample space for a substantial sized dining table and additional furniture, and handmade recessed bookshelves made by a local cabinet maker. Attractive wooden floorboards add warmth and character to the room, whilst double French doors open into the adjoining sunroom, benefiting from a desirable southerly aspect. Large sliding patio doors open directly onto the raised decking area. Completing the trio of reception rooms is the separate living room, another generously proportioned and beautifully presented space. Enjoying a pleasant south-facing aspect, the room is flooded with natural light through a bay window overlooking the top patio and garden beyond.
