The accommodation at Old Church Manse offers a well-proportioned drawing room, as well as a sitting room and formal dining room, while the bespoke kitchen in particular is a feature of the property. The rear hallway on the ground floor now leads to a contemporary shower room with a Nordic sauna.
Upstairs, the first floor has a bright and airy master bedroom suite with two large windows offering views over the bay and beyond. There are three further bedrooms and a family bathroom. The second floor has an attic/games room and a home office/study.
