The house has been well maintained although it does now require modernisation and improvement. A beautiful front door with surrounding stained glass windows opening into an impressive reception hall is a superb introduction to this house. There are two magnificent reception rooms with the front room featuring deep bay windows to the front and side and the rear room featuring a deep bay window to the side and double doors opening to the garden. There is a 16'4 3rd reception room which could be utilised as an office or a playroom and the breakfast and kitchen could be opened up to create a larger open plan space, with access out to the rear through a covered lean to. A cloakroom with W/C and basin completes the ground floor. Upstairs, you will find two large principal bedrooms which are both double aspect with the rear room enjoying fantastic views across the valley.
