The kitchen is in the Shaker style and has a large breakfast area with access to the utility room on one side and the larder and downstairs cloakroom on the other. Upstairs, the landing gives access to the bedrooms and a family bathroom. The master bedroom has built-in wardrobes, a generous bathroom, and enjoys views over the garden and the countryside. The guest bedroom has a dressing room which could, with some re-design, allow another en suite shower room to be created.

A terrace, with pergola, faces west which is ideal for entertaining and enjoying the evening sun. The stables and paddock lie to the east of the property with separate access onto Pudding Lane. E
