The property itself has been completely refurbished and has a living space of around 400 sq m with lots of character. The ground floor has a comfortable sitting room with fireplace, a music and reading room with fireplace, parlour and a spacious dining room with adjacent conservatory. The house also has a fabulous spa and wellness area towards the back on the ground floor which includes an indoor swimming pool, sauna and various relaxation areas.
An impressive stairway leads to the two upper floors, the first of which has two very large bedrooms and a family bathroom and the top floor has four further bedrooms including the master bedroom with freestanding shower.
