Further improvements have been carried out in more recent years which include the installation of very high quality double glazed timber sash windows to the southern elevation and there have been general further enhancements throughout. The rooms are well proportioned and light with large windows and tall ceilings and the house is beautifully presented. From the recently installed panelled entrance door the wide entrance hall provides direct access to the three main reception rooms. The drawing room has a south facing bay overlooking the gardens with an open fireplace, and both the sitting and dining rooms also have open fireplaces and exposed wooden flooring. The farmhouse style kitchen has a four oven oil fired Aga cooker and a range of wall and floor mounted units together with other integrated appliances.
